Development permits have been approved for the proposed five-story apartment infill at 4185 Piedmont Avenue in Oakland, Alameda County. Before receiving approval, Kava Massih Architects shared a revised facade plan, replacing grey columns with gold-painted steel. The firm is responsible for sponsoring the application on behalf of the property owner.
New plans have been filed to convert an industrial building to housing in San Francisco’s Potrero Hill neighborhood.

Align Real Estate is responsible for the application.
Increased plans have been submitted for an eight-story apartment complex at 842 California Street on Nob Hill, San Francisco. The new proposal, now two floors taller, will create 30 for-ownership apartments with four moderately affordable units. Acme Development is responsible for the application as project sponsor.
Construction has officially started on 39 affordable homes with a groundbreaking ceremony at 1367 University Avenue in North Berkeley, Alameda County. The project will create housing for formerly homeless individuals, giving access to amenities, on-site services, and close access to the North Berkeley BART Station. San Francisco-based Panoramic Interests is the developer while Building Opportunities for Self Sufficiency will manage the property and leasing.
Construction work has topped out with facade installation nearly complete for the four-story life science project at 777 Industrial Road in San Carlos, San Mateo County. The project rose quickly since our prior coverage in June last year when demolition had finished for everything but a single floor for adaptive reuse. Presidio Bay Ventures is the project developer, and W.L. Butler is the general contractor.
