The Santa Clara Planning Commission is scheduled to meet tomorrow and consider approval of a 21-story apartment tower at 5185 Lafayette Street in the Tasman East master plan. The proposal is expected to create nearly two hundred homes and even more parking near light rail, the Capitol Corridor train station, and Levi’s Stadium. San Francisco-based Ensemble Investments is the project developer.
Construction has topped out for the first life science structure in The Landing, rising at 1699 Old Bayshore Highway in Burlingame, San Mateo County. The progress comes just eight months after YIMBY’s last site visit, during which Hathaway Dinwiddie was starting on the foundation. King Street Properties and Helios Real Estate Partners are joint developers for the project.
It has only been two weeks since plans were first announced for the region’s potential second-tallest residential tower, and a flurry of permit activity has already been submitted to the city’s Planning Department. The 72-story proposal for 530 Howard Street is expected to rise 844 feet tall, among the tallest in the country, and could become the third or fourth tallest skyscraper in San Francisco. Bayhill Ventures, the project developer, has also submitted a request for new building permits.
Development plans have been published before a development review hearing for Tasman East Parcel 11 in Santa Clara, Santa Clara County. The 21-story tower is expected to rise to 5185 Lafayette Street with retail, 198 apartments, and even more parking. Ensemble is the project developer.
The Oakland Planning Commission has scheduled an in-person meeting to review plans for a 17-story office tower at 1919 Webster Street in Downtown Oakland, Alameda County. The proposal is a roughly 9-story reduction from the initial office plans for the central location, reflecting the cooling climate for office space in the Bay Area. Ellis Partners is responsible for the application.
