Berkeley’s Landmark Preservation Commission has voted to protect the United Artists Theater’s facade at 2274 Shattuck Avenue but not the rest of the structure. The decision will be reviewed by the City Council in a public meeting next Tuesday. After that, the developer, Panoramic Interests, is expected to have a clear pathway to start construction for the 227-unit tower once funding is secured.
Panoramic Interests has shared new renderings with YIMBY for the 17-story residential tower expected to rise at 2274 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. The infill will replace the shuttered 91-year-old theater while retaining the historical facade for the lobby entrance and cafe. Trachtenberg Architects is responsible for the design.
New plans have been filed for a 17-story residential high-rise at 2274 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. The project benefits from the State Density Bonus Program to create 239 homes above retail. Panoramic Interests is responsible for the application.
