Recent permit activity shows plans are moving ahead to entitle a Life Sciences building at 2900 Harbor Bay Parkway in Alameda, Alameda County. The project would reshape a vacant 5.5-acre plot of waterfront land with a Research and Development building rather than the existing entitled plans for a Marriott Inn hotel. JLL is responsible for the property’s marketing.
Increased plans have been filed for The Hub, the mixed-use tower at 2128 Oxford Street in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. The application has nearly doubled in residential capacity while the height has been raised from 17 to 25 floors tall. On top, a rooftop bar and restaurant will offer commanding views of the surrounding region and, potentially, two more similarly-tall buildings. Core Spaces is the developer.
A pre-application has been filed for a 26-story residential tower at 1974 Shattuck Avenue. If approved, it would become the tallest building in Downtown Berkeley, and among the tallest residential buildings in Alameda County. The proposal aims to produce 297 new homes and a rooftop restaurant with views across the Bay Area. The application is led by NX Ventures, Rhoades Planning Group, and Trachtenberg Architects.
New plans have been filed for an affordable housing project at 2301 Telegraph Avenue in Northgate-Waverly, Oakland. The seven-story proposal will replace a single-story commercial building with 58 homes. Mithun is listed as the project architect.
