New development permits have been filed for the adaptive reuse project at 111 Fairmount Avenue in Oakland. The site looks to partially demolish the historic church used by the Oakland Peace Center and replace a large portion of the property with new units of affordable housing. The Oakland Peace Center is partnering with The Unity Council for the completion of the project.
A Notice of Exemption was recently filed with CEQA, permitting the construction of a large infill project at 555 West Midfield Road in Mountain View. The project is brought by the existing site owners, AvalonBay Communities, who currently manage 404 apartment units at the address. The new project will add an additional 323 units, for a total of 727 on the site.
The University of California at Berkeley has made clear its intention to move forward with its largest-ever student housing project. The proposed building would reach 26 stories, rising 3 more above the university’s next largest project, currently under construction at Bancroft Way and Fulton Street.
Permits were filed earlier this month for the demolition of existing structures at 658 Lisbon Street in San Francisco, to be followed by the construction of a new three-story residence on the site. The new structure would be both larger in height and square footage than the existing property.
Permits were filed earlier this month for a three-story single-family home with an attached additional dwelling unit located at 36 Nevada Street in San Francisco. The current site is a steeply sloped vacant parcel that backs directly up to the Bernal Heights Park. The building will be partially cut into the hillside, removing approximately 315 cubic yards of soil from the site.
