Preliminary permits have been filed for the mixed-use redevelopment of a now-closed Safeway grocery store at 1335 Webster Street in San Francisco’s Fillmore District. The initial application proposes the addition of approximately 1,800 new apartments above a replacement grocery store. Align Real Estate is responsible for the application filing on behalf of the property owner, Safeway, Inc.
Align Real Estate is reportedly in agreement to buy Webster Plaza Safeway grocery store, located across from the Japantown Peace Plaza in San Francisco’s Fillmore District. The developer has signaled plans to transform the large parcel into a mixed-use development with commercial space and housing.
New project permits have been filed to replace the soon-to-close Safeway grocery store within the Valley Fair shopping mall with a surface parking lot. Demolition will be required for the strip mall-style structure at 3071 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Santa Clara. Westfield is the mall owner and manager.
A proposal will be heard by the City of South San Francisco for the replacement Safeway grocery store at 180 El Camino Real in South San Francisco in San Mateo County. Tomorrow’s meeting will occur over half a decade after the multi-tenant 180 El Camino strip mall was closed in preparation for a transit-oriented mixed-use development that hasn’t materialized. Now, the property has been purchased by SteelWave, and plans are moving ahead.
