Updated plans have been filed for a mixed-use development at 603 Jefferson Avenue and 750 Bradford Street in Redwood City, San Mateo County. The proposal is looking to add housing and offices to an entire block in the heart of the city’s core. The prolific Sobrato Organization is sponsoring the project on behalf of the property owner, the Redwood City School District.

Construction will produce two buildings, one for housing and the other for offices. The office building will rise 126 feet tall across eight high-ceiling floors, while the apartment complex will reach 109 feet tall across ten floors. The full build-out will yield approximately 437,720 square feet, comprising 140,090 square feet for housing, 186,000 square feet of office space, and 111,630 square feet for a two-story basement garage.
Parking will be included for 236 cars and 70 bicycles. Roughly 20,500 square feet of the commercial space will be converted into office space for the Redwood City School District, keeping the local agency anchored in the downtown neighborhood.

Van Meter Williams Pollack will be the residential architect, with STUDIOS Architecture overseeing the core and shell architecture. The housing will be wrapped with faux-wood panels, grey stone, and stucco, where the offices will be wrapped with a terracotta brick veneer and metal panels.
The 1.25-acre property is located along Bradford Street between Jefferson Avenue and Main Street. Demolition will be required for the two-story RCSD headquarters and low-slung commercial office building.

This is nice mixed-use density for downtown, but it would be nice if they could daylight the creek on the east side of the property instead of just leaving a surface parking lot covering it.
