The race for the tallest building in Berkeley continues, and it is a contest of single-digit differences. Updated plans have been filed with the Berkeley Planning Department for 2128 Oxford Street, which raises the project to 26 floors and 284 feet tall. The plans are now the tallest proposed building for Downtown Berkeley, extending just seven feet over 1974 Shattuck Avenue.
The San Francisco Civic Design Review Committee is scheduled to review plans for the Transbay Block 3 park during a public meeting next Monday.

The San Francisco Public Works department is the landscape architect.
The CIM Group has submitted pre-application documents for a new 46-story residential tower at 325 22nd Street, named Town Tower, in Downtown Oakland. If built today, the project would be the tallest addition to the Alameda County skyline, rising 487 feet tall, well above the current 404-foot Ordway Building. The new plans are a shift away from 2017-era plans by CIM for an office tower at the same location.
The Vallejo Design Review Board will hold a public study session later today for Mariner’s Cove, a suburban infill development that would crate 175 new single-unit homes around retail and two parks across a vacant 27-acre swath of land in the Northern Waterfront Area. The project will create new housing for the most populous city in Solano County. Callahan Property Company is responsible for the application.
