Revised plans have been filed for the abandoned construction site at 4400 Martin Luther King Junior Way in Oakland, Alameda County. The topped-out project is located close to the MacArthur BART Station, overlooking California State Route 24. The latest filing shifts the project from offering 57 apartments to 144 units in a fully affordable development, dubbed The Refuge Apartments. Hybridge Capital Management is responsible for the redevelopment.

The application states that no physical changes are anticipated compared to the 2018-approved plans, which span roughly 57,000 square feet. The original plan called for 57 units with a total of 155 bedrooms, including seven affordable apartments. Updated plans, first revealed at the start of this year, would create 144 units, including one market-rate two-bedroom residence for the on-site property manager. Humphreys and Partners Architects is responsible for the original design.

Reporting by Paul Bubny for ConnectCRE states the project will provide supportive housing for veterans, domestic violence survivors, and extremely low-income individuals. Once work restarts, the development team expects to open doors within a year.

Bruce Gladstone of Accel Opportunity Fund VII is listed as the project applicant, and the Five Keys’ homeless services division will be the property manager. The applicant has yet to reply to a request for comment.
