A density bonus request has been filed for a new multi-family mixed-use project proposed at 347 East 18th Street, Merritt, Oakland. The project proposal includes a four-story building offering residential and commercial space along with onsite parking. Plans call for the demolition of an existing one-story vacant commercial building.
Arris Studio Architects is manning the design concepts and construction.
