Updated plans for 2065 Kittredge Street are up for public review by the Berkeley Design Review Committee. The eight-story project would replace three low-rise commercial buildings with an off-campus student housing building in the heart of Downtown Berkeley. CA Ventures, an international development firm based in Chicago, is responsible for the application.
Construction work has topped out with facade installation imminent on the latest addition to the UCSF Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center, or ZSFG. The five-story building is rising at the corner of 23rd and Vermont Street in the Mission District, on what was once a surface parking lot. The UC Board of Regents is responsible for the project.
Commercial new building permits have been filed for a seven-story residential development at 1617 J Street in Midtown Sacramento. If approved, the project would add 198 new homes near the city’s heart, on top of roughly 40,000 square feet of commercial retail. SKK Development is the project applicant.
Vornado Realty Trust has commissioned Fogarty Finger, a New York City-based architecture firm, to revamp the interiors of 555 California Street, located in San Francisco’s Financial District. The firm will oversee the refurbishment of the 34th and 46th floors to entice new tenants into one of the city’s most prominent office buildings. Work is expected to finish by July this year.
Demolition permits have been filed for the existing building at 6501 Shattuck Avenue in Bushrod, North Oakland. The plans would replace a vacant single-story commercial structure with a four-story mixed-use infill. Moshe Dinar of Dinar & Associates is responsible for the design.
