Preliminary plans were published late last week for a potential redevelopment of the Hillsdale indoor mall in San Mateo, San Mateo County. Initial details include the demolition of nearly three-quarters of the shopping center’s facilities, leaving just the North Block untouched as the remaining acres are transformed into housing, retail, and multi-level garages. Sares Regis Group is responsible for the application.
Oakland Roots has released plans for a potential new soccer stadium to rise on Howard Terminal along the Oakland Estuary. The team has conceived of a multi-phase development which would culminate with a permanent arena for the Roots and the Soul Sports Club on the waterfront site. HOK is responsible for the design.
Construction has topped out for phase one of the YouTube headquarters redevelopment in San Bruno, San Mateo County. Crews have brought together the steel and mass-timber frame that form two three-story office buildings designed by the New York-based SHoP Architects. San Francisco-based Ellis Partners is the development manager.
UC Berkeley has published the notice of preparation for the Berkeley Space Center in the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, Santa Clara County. The university is working with NASA to create a $2 billion 36-acre research campus of academic and research facilities in the heart of the historic Moffett Field. UC and San Francisco-based SKS Partners have entered a joint venture, Moffett Partners LLC, to pursue development.
Development permits have been filed for a new stadium for two soccer clubs at 8000 South Coliseum Way in Coliseum, East Oakland. The project would replace a surplus parking lot within the Coliseum campus and allow the two teams to start playing in the 2025 season. The permits were filed the same day the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum board unanimously approved plans for the Oakland Athletics to negotiate a lease agreement for 2025-2026 with the teams’ owner.
