Just over a year after the official groundbreaking ceremony, crews have topped out the five-story affordable educator housing development at 1360 43rd Avenue in San Francisco’s Sunset District. The Shirley Chisholm Village has replaced a former school and outdoor yard with the low-rise apartment infill designed by BAR Architects with G7A. MidPen Housing is the project developer, and Cahill is the general contractor.
Acclaim Companies has filed an alternative application for what is now a builder’s remedy-assisted plan to develop 3150 El Camino Real in Palo Alto, Santa Clara County. The seven-story project, initially filed this June, aims to build 380 new homes on the 2.55-acre site. Communications with the city’s planning department show the developer is filing the second application in response to the department’s signal of disapproval for the increased housing.
Updated plans will be reviewed tomorrow for an eight-story residential infill at 2538 Durant Avenue in Southside, Berkeley. The project will create 83 homes, including replacement housing for an existing structure near the UC Berkeley campus. Martin Group and Valiance Capital are sponsoring the proposal.
While Related has topped out for the 23-story apartment tower at 2300 Calle De Luna, work is moving forward on several other mid-rise projects in Santa Clara’s Tasman East Specific Plan. The six structures will rise between six to eight floors high, creating over a thousand and five hundred units, shops, and new open space.
Plans have been approved for a seven-story affordable housing development at 1304 Middlefield Road on the edge of Downtown Redwood City, San Mateo County. The project will create 94 rental units alongside a community room and amenities. Sand Hill Property Company is the project developer.
