The 2655 Shattuck Ave project took another step forward last week when The City of Berkeley filed for a Notice of Exemption for CEQA, in accordance with the standards of Infill Development Project exemptions.

Last week, Berkeley Moshav, the nation’s first Jewish urban cohousing complex broke ground at its site on San Pablo Ave. The four-story, mixed-use construction begins more than 10 years after the original proposal, making a historic debut for a new type of community-based housing. Urban Development + Partners has worked with Studio KDA architects and local Jewish community groups to realize this long-held dream.
