5:30 am on October 25, 2024 By Andrew Nelson

Westbank and Urban Community are once again considering shifting plans for an office building to housing in Downtown San Jose. New permits for the Valley Title property at 300 South First Street and 345 South Second Street have shifted from two office towers into three clustered 30-story apartment towers with over a thousand homes. However, the joint venture is not canceling permits for the office iteration. Steinberg Hart is responsible for the design.

Meeting Today To Review DEIR and Potential Skybridge for Orchard Workspace, Downtown San Jose

5:30 am on August 16, 2021 By Andrew Nelson

The San Jose planning department is scheduled to review the draft supplemental environmental impact report for Orchard Workspace in Downtown San Jose at 6 PM today. Orchard Workspace consists of two proposed office towers as high as 301 feet above street level with new retail at 300 South 1st Street and 345 South 2nd Street. The major revelation ahead of the meeting is that a new sky bridge is considered to connect the two office buildings on levels ten and eleven. The project is one of several prospective San Jose projects with Gary Dillabough and Westbank as the joint developers.

Today, we highlight The Orchard, producing two towers at 300 South 1st Street and the third tower at 409 South 2nd Street, called The Orchard Workspace and The Orchard Residential. The Orchard yields over two million square feet combined, producing a campus of offices, housing, retail, and restaurants.
