Today’s headline story is a project review of one of the more substantial urban developments in the Bay Area. KT Urban plans to build a 1.8 million square foot office building at 280 Woz Way in downtown San Jose, the heart of Silicon Valley. The project will bring two 297-foot conjoined towers, replacing a handful of single-family houses and extending the city’s burgeoning skyline further south.
Demolition permits have been filed to build a four-building complex at 825 6th Avenue in Merritt, Oakland. The four three-story buildings will produce a total of fifteen town-house units surrounding a landscaped courtyard. Riaz Capital is responsible for the development.
Construction is moving quickly on the 26-story tower at 30 Otis Street in SoMa, San Francisco. Since SFYIMBY’s update in late September, the concrete structure has topped out, and the curtain wall glass facade is just a handful of stories from the peak. Once complete, the project will produce 418 new residential units in the ‘The Hub,’ a rezoned district as part of the city’s master plan. Align Development is responsible for the design.
Entitlement permits have been filed for a substantial multi-family building at 4625 10th Avenue in Oak Park, Sacramento. The permits describe a 115,854 square foot structure, yielding 130 units. Turton Commercial Real Estate is responsible for the sale of the property.
Recent preliminary project permits show that the development at 4550 Mission Street offers nearly three times the residential capacity as originally planned. Located in Outer Mission, San Francisco, the developers increased their plans from 24 to 69 apartments. The permits credit HOME-SF, a city-wide local density bonus program to encourage affordable housing near transit. The developer is not listed.
