Construction has topped out for the new eight-story residential project at 2587 Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley’s Southside neighborhood. The student-oriented complex will provide 485 beds within 52 separate units along the retail-rich thoroughfare. Gilbane Development Company is the project developer.
Less than two years after the official groundbreaking, a new supportive housing complex has opened at 1367 University Avenue in Berkeley, Alameda County. The project is located along University Avenue, just two blocks from the North Berkeley BART Station. Panoramic Interests is responsible for the development.
In the latest news for a project at 2500 76th Avenue, development permits have been filed, allowing for the progression of the project to its next stage and eventual construction. The large-scale project in the Eastmont neighborhood of Oakland was first reported on by SF YIMBY in August of last year. Since then, the project has seen rapid progress towards approvals, with various permits being filed this year.
A meeting is scheduled for today to discuss the possible extension of a Major Use Permit and Design Review Approval for 6445 Christie Avenue in Emeryville. Harvest Properties originally brought the project in 2022, but has yet to break ground despite being approved by the City of Emeryville. The meeting today will determine if they are allowed to extend the development timeframe another year or if the project is dead in the water.
Preliminary plans have been submitted for the construction of a new location for Fire Station 4 at 1711 14th Avenue in Clinton, Oakland. The proposal would bring the neighborhood an updated facility four blocks away from the Oakland Fire Department’s current 116-year-old facility. The Oakland Public Works Department is responsible for the application.
