Revised plans for the five-story apartment complex at 8581 Folsom Boulevard in Sacramento have been submitted. The project will still replace surface parking connected to the US Social Security Administration office building with over a hundred homes. This time, the plans have increased by twenty units.
HRGA is the project architect. Illustrations for the revised complex show minor changes to the exterior without any change to the overall shape, configuration, and facade palette. The exterior will be wrapped with plaster, cement board siding, and thin brick veneer. Fewer windows and balconies will be constructed for the corner units.

NeoTeric is the landscape architect. The firm will oversee planting new trees and shrubbery across the existing surface parking, designing a ground-level pool deck by the apartments, and amenity decks on the second and fifth floors.
The new plans will bring 124 apartments to the lot. Unit sizes will vary, with 44 studios, 58 one-bedrooms, and 22 two-bedrooms. Once complete, the 58-foot tall apartment complex will yield around 103,090 square feet of housing above the 124-car podium garage. Additional long-term parking for 62 bicycles, or one for every two units, will be included.

The 4.9-acre parcel is currently occupied by a single-story commercial office and surface parking for the US Social Security Administration. Once complete, future residents will be close to a retail center, the Folsom Boulevard Flea Market, and the College Greens lightrail station.
Cunningham Development is the project developer, and Cartwright is the civil engineer. The estimated cost and timeline for construction have yet to be established.
