The Victorian-era home to Poor House Bistro has been moved from 91 South Autumn Street to 317 West St. John Street in Little Italy, San Jose. The relocation comes ahead of Downtown West, Google’s massive plans to redevelop the low-density area surrounding Diridon Station with high-density offices, housing, and retail. Project site maps indicate 91 South Autumn Street will be replaced with an office building.
People across the Bay Area have been told to expect an impressive onslaught of construction to start or finish during this new year. From Treasure Island to Mission Bay, Diridon Station to Downtown Oakland, crews are planning to break ground on skyscrapers and apartments, open a new light-rail subway, and start work on the Silicon Valley BART extension. The following is a list of the highlights we at SFYIMBY hope to share with our readers between now and 2023.
Detailed new renderings have been published for UCSF’s proposed new hospital addition to the Parnassus Heights Campus. The new renderings with design by Herzog & de Meuron come with the Draft Environmental Impact Report’s publication and the start of a public comment period. University of California, San Francisco is the project sponsor.
Beautifully detailed new renderings have been published for the high-rise proposal at 395 3rd Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The mixed-use tower is poised to replace a surface parking lot in the city with retail, public open space, and over five hundred apartments. Henning Larsen Architects, an internationally renowned Danish architecture firm, is responsible for the design.
In January of 2021, the Oceanwide Center in San Francisco was expected to become the second tallest tower in the Bay Area. Construction was put on hold in October of 2020, and subsequent issues throughout 2021 have imperiled Oceanwide’s plans. However, foundation work is complete, and there remains hope that a new developer could pick up and finish the highly anticipated 910-foot tower designed by Foster + Partners.
