Modified zoning permits have been filed for the development of an affordable housing project at 1223 East 33rd Avenue near the Fruitvale BART Station in Oakland. The latest application now looks to construct 81 apartments at the vacant corner lot. Unity Council and Self-Help Ventures are joint developers.
PYATOK Architects is responsible for the application and design. The latest filing states that it does not exceed the 107 units allowed under the density bonus analysis included in the previously approved entitlements. Other modifications include reducing parking from 7 spaces to 1 and increasing ground-floor open space.

Further information was not provided about the potential floor count, unit sizes, or any changes to amenities. The previous application included mostly one-bedroom apartments and 4,800 square feet of shared amenities. The previous design by PYATOK was clad in stucco, glazed brick, and exposed board-formed concrete.
The existing 0.33-acre parcel is currently occupied by surface parking and open land. The irregularly shaped small plot is located along 33rd Avenue and East 12th Street, across from the Fruitvale Station mixed-use development.
The project team has yet to respond to YIMBY’s request for further information. The estimated cost and timeline for construction have not yet been shared.
