A new affordable housing project is proposed for development at 125 East 125 12th Street in Merritt, Oakland. The project proposal includes the development of a new eight-story building to be used as an affordable housing complex offering 94 units. Satellite Affordable Housing Associates is leading the project and working with co-developer Eastlake United for Justice.
Construction is wrapping up for a new senior affordable housing project taking shape and form at 383 6th Avenue, Richmond District, San Francisco.

The project’s general contractor is Nibbi, and construction manager is Waypoint Consulting. Y.A. Studio is the project architect.
New details have been published for the 430 Broadway parcel in Oakland’s waterfront neighborhood, Jack London Square.

The San Francisco Planning Department has approved plans for a two-unit project at 49 Hopkins Avenue on Twin Peaks, San Francisco. The approval includes the retroactive legalization of the illegal demolition of Largent House, the 1935-built home designed by the prominent modernist architect Richard Neutra. Despite the unanimous vote in 2018 by the Planning Commission to prompt the property owner to rebuild a replica of the house, a legal battle and settlement has allowed the owner to pursue new plans.
Alongside the Tuesday ribbon cutting atop Verde, my recent site visit to Mission Rock gave me an opportunity to document the completion of phase one of the ambitious master plan along the San Francisco waterfront. Construction has replaced about half of the 28-acre surface parking lot with over five hundred homes, more than half a million square feet of commercial real estate, new internal streets, shops, and a public park across from Oracle Park. The project has been a joint venture with Tishman Speyer and the San Francisco Giants.
