Development permits have been filed seeking the approval of a mixed-use project at 1629 S Street in Sacramento. The project proposal includes the development of a four-story mixed-use building offering residential and retail spaces. Plans call for the demolition of the existing structures and trees on the site.
Vrilakas Groen Architects is responsible for the design concepts.

too much parking
Restaurants, fitness, and retailers all need parking. Street parking does not cut it for their parking & convenience requirements…
This is a pretty disappointing proposal. The site is over 1/4 of a block. It’s next to other, larger developments. Yet the developer only wants to go up 4 stories? Much of the proposal looks to be surface parking. Furthermore, the design is a cut-and-paste job. How about an 8-story building with integrated parking and a design with curves (or something different) instead?
I know costs are high, but I am getting tired of seeing the 4 – 5 floor “L” or Box-shaped proposals. This faux industrial look is nothing special. When I look at other cities, they are getting beautiful developments. Why is Sacramento getting stuck with the same boring stuff?
