Plans have been published for a potential new housing project on top of the Amoeba Music record store at 2455 Telegraph Avenue in Southside, Berkeley. The proposal would add seven floors of housing above the existing store, retaining the site’s nearly 50-year-old landmarked murals. Amoeba co-owners Dave Prinz and Marc Weinstein are jointly responsible for the development.
Plans are pivoting once again for 2700 Sloat Boulevard in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood. The latest filing could create nearly seven hundred units of affordable housing, along with a potential ground-floor grocery store and public parking, across from the city’s zoo and close to Ocean Beach. Raelynn Hickey of Nevada-based CH Planning LLC is once more responsible for the application.
Preliminary plans have been filed for a behavioral health recovery facility close to the MacArthur BART Station at 3841 Telegraph Avenue in Oakland’s Temescal neighborhood. The project would replace two smaller buildings with a four-story medical space. Hayward-based Horizon Services is the property owner and sponsor.
Construction is expected to start later this week for Aquino, a dense eight-story apartment complex to rise at 498 West San Carlos Street in San Jose, Santa Clara County. New building permits were filed last week with the city’s planning department, and the team has secured a $112.5 million construction loan for the 278-unit complex. Urban Catalyst is the project developer.
Formal permits have been filed for a three-story mansion to rise at 3456 Washington Street in Presidio Heights, San Francisco. The project would replace a 67-year-old home with a bespoke residence and an accessory dwelling unit for the Gap Inc. co-founder and local billionaire, Doris F. Fisher. San Francisco-based Obata Noblin Office is responsible for the design.
