After missing a November deadline last year, one of the developers behind the tree-lined apartment proposal in Downtown San Jose has given a new estimate. Gary Dillabough of Urban Community has reportedly shared that construction at 409 South Second Street is expected to start in the first half of 2024. If this is accomplished, it would be the first project in the Westbank master plan to rise.
Westbank and Urban Community have submitted new plans to convert Downtown San Jose’s iconic Bank of Italy tower into housing. The adaptive reuse of the office tower would create well over a hundred apartments across most of the 13-story building. The filing comes as the region struggles with record-high office vacancy rates.
MANU Studios has submitted an updated application for the 11-story mixed-use proposal at 101 Delmas Avenue in San Jose. The filing reveals newer renderings since coverage from June of last year and introduces the Builder’s Remedy provision to expedite the approval process. If built, the project will bring 80 new homes on a small lot close to Diridon Station and Downtown San Jose.
YIMBY has received detailed plans for the University Station redevelopment at 451-475 El Camino Real in Santa Clara and San Jose. The proposal could create over four hundred units in an apartment building and townhomes next to the Santa Clara Caltrain station. The Morley Brothers, a prominent Silicon Valley real estate developer, is responsible for the project.
New preliminary plans have been filed for an eleven-acre property at 451 El Camino Real, mostly in Santa Clara, with 0.91 acres across the city border in San Jose. The proposal will replace an office campus and a small strip mall next to the city’s Caltrain station. Bixby Land Company is responsible for the application.
