Renderings have been revealed for the potential tallest building in Berkeley. Preliminary applications were filed earlier this week for the 34-story apartment complex at 2190 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. Landmark Properties is the property owner and applicant.

The 360-foot-tall tower is expected to yield over half a million square feet, including 530,440 square feet of housing and 7,500 square feet of ground-level retail. Parking will be included for 51 cars and 295 bicycles. The project is expected to include 452 apartments, including 30 studios, 98 one-bedrooms, 158 two-bedrooms, 38 three-bedrooms, 96 four-bedrooms, and 32 five-bedrooms.
SDT Architects is the design architect for 2190 Shattuck Avenue, with Myefski Architects serving as the architect of record. Humphrey & Partners will be the landscape architect. Renderings shared with YIMBY show that the overall design scheme remains unchanged from the previously approved plans, with the same design features and nine additional floors. Facade materials include plaster panels, metal, and decorative metal railings for the private balconies. The rooftop deck will offer several residential amenities, including a hot tub, dog run, and seating.

Landmark Properties is an Atlanta, Georgia-based developer with a portfolio of over a hundred residential projects across the country, and over 50 projects in the pipeline.
The application has dethroned 1998 Shattuck Avenue as the tallest proposal in the city’s pipeline, adding a new twist to the informal competition to build the tallest building in the city. The third-tallest project is for the 284-foot-tall tower at 2128 Oxford Street.

The 0.46-acre property is located at the corner of Shattuck Avenue and Allston Way. The building is on the same block as the Berkeley Skydeck building, the current tallest building in the city. The tallest structure in Berkeley is the 307-foot Campanile Tower on the UC Berkeley Campus.
The estimated cost and timeline for construction have yet to be shared.
