Plans have been approved this summer for Centro Callan, a mixed-use development at 1188 East 14th Street in Old San Leandro. The five-story proposal will add 196 new dwelling units on top of a new specialty grocery store. Sansome Pacific and The Martin Group are jointly responsible for the development.

Residential amenities will include a courtyard with barbeque pits, a club room, a fitness and yoga room, a dog relief area, and a rooftop deck. Of the 196 apartments, sizes will vary with 60 studios, 94 one-bedrooms, 35 two-bedrooms, and seven three-bedroom units. Working residents will also benefit from on-site conference rooms and outdoor work pods.
According to The Martin Group, “The units will feature quartz countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, full size washer dryer, wide plank flooring, kitchen islands, smart access control, oversized patios and balconies in select units.”

Once a CVS Store, the city sold the property to Sansome Pacific in 2015 for $1.2 million. Residents will be ten minutes away from the San Leandro BART Station and within 300 feet of a Bus Rapid Transit stop.
