A large residential project at 650 East Santa Clara Street was added to the agenda for next week’s Director’s Hearing in San Jose. The meeting is being held as the project’s public review period comes to a close, allowing discussion of the community feedback. Additionally, CEQA files for the project were posted earlier this week, giving more information on the project’s environmental effects.
In total, the six-story project would bring San Jose a combination of 50 units, 7,010 square feet for retail, and 7,100 square feet for offices. Frank Chiu of HS Santa Clara LLC is sponsoring the project, and Fillon Solis is responsible for the architectural designs.

Illustrations show a simple poium-style complex articulated by a variety of setbacks and inset balconies. Framing of the windows will emphasize its verticality, making the structure appear like several narrower and smaller buildings.

The property is located on a 0.45-acre site at the corner of Santa Clara Street and South 14th Street. The nearby area includes several other similarly scaled developments and proposals, including a nine-story office complex and 4.2 acres of undeveloped land where Core Companies and Eden Housing are jointly pursuing plans to construct 559 affordable units.
Future tenants will benefit from a highly central location, with just under 15 minutes walk from San Jose City Hall, and roughly 15 minutes away from San Jose State University. Parking will also be provided for 62 cars and 24 bicycles, giving tenants a range of transportation options.
