Construction is expected to start by mid-July of this year on the eight-story affordable housing project at 600 7th Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The expanded plans now produce 221 new affordable homes, over half of which will be for formerly homeless adults and families. Mercy Housing is responsible for the development as the property owner.
Construction is expected to begin in April on affordable housing at 78 Haight Street in Hayes Valley, San Francisco. The General Plan Referral, filed with the city this week, explains that the start date is imposed by the project’s construction financing package. The project, dubbed Parcel U, has been in the works since 2019 by the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation.
The 440-foot 340 Fremont Street is tied with two other towers as the 43rd tallest building in the Bay Area, located on Rincon Hill in SoMa, San Francisco. The project was first proposed in 2005, though delays pushed construction to start in 2014 and open in 2016. Equity Residential is the project developer.
New building permits have been filed to construct an eight-story residential building at 600 7th Street, an undeveloped lot near SoMa’s Design District. The project is being developed by Mercy Housing California, with plans for all 208 units to be 100% affordable supportive housing.
San Jose’s tallest tower is looking a lot more like it’s renderings now. MIRO topped out in late July, with its facade closing in on the 28th floor for both towers. The project is addressed at 167 East Santa Clara Street, between 4th and 5th street, and directly across from the San Jose City Hall’s plaza. Once complete, the towers will add over a million square feet of new space to the city, predominantly residential with some retail and commercial space.
