New renderings have been revealed for a proposed eight-story mixed-use building at 2440 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. The project, named The Lair @ Haste, uses the State Density Program to build a total of 40 new homes, ten more than base zoning would permit. Bill Schrader of the Austin Group is the project developer. The project will be reviewed later today by the city’s Design Review Committee.
Updated plans for 2065 Kittredge Street are up for public review by the Berkeley Design Review Committee. The eight-story project would replace three low-rise commercial buildings with an off-campus student housing building in the heart of Downtown Berkeley. CA Ventures, an international development firm based in Chicago, is responsible for the application.
Expanded permits have been filed for a nine-story residential infill at 3000 Shattuck Avenue in South Berkeley. The application marks a significant increase from plans filed by a different developer in 2017 for 23 co-living apartments. Now, NX Ventures has proposed building 156 new homes on the same corner lot, within walking distance from groceries, shops, AC Transit, and the Ashby BART Station.
A preliminary application has been filed seeking approvals for modifications at 2015 Blake Street in Downtown Berkeley. The project proposal includes the addition of residential units to the existing units and increasing the building height to eight floors. Plans call for the demolition of the existing commercial buildings and one duplex on the site.
The design review application has been filed for a three-story residential infill at 2727 San Pablo Avenue in Southwest Berkeley, by the Alameda County waterfront. The project will replace a single-story commercial structure with four new homes. ISO Ideas, a San Francisco-based architecture firm, is responsible for the concept design.
