Studio KDA has revealed to YIMBY new detailed plans for an eight-story mixed-use apartment building at 2480 Bancroft Way in Southside, Berkeley. The infill will produce 28 new homes across from the UC Berkeley Campus and near Telegraph Avenue. The team has submitted a pre-application to secure a streamlined approval process with Senate Bill 330.
The pre-application has been filed for a five-story senior affordable housing project at 1708 Harmon Street in South Berkeley, Alameda County. The proposal will create 80 units just a few blocks from the Ashby BART Station. The Community Housing Development Organization of North Richmond is responsible for the application.
Construction has topped out for phase two of IDENTITY Logan Park, an eight-story residential infill at 2370 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. While crews work to build the 69-unit structure, leasing has started for the 135 units in phase one, including the replacement Chase Bank at the corner of Shattuck and Durant Avenue. The Austin Group and CA Ventures are the project developers.
Construction has started for the Lair, an eight-story mixed-use project at 2440 Shattuck Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. Demolition has already cleared the former single-story structure, with crews working to create the forty new homes and retail adjacent to several new and proposed projects. The Austin Group is the project developer.
Excavation work is progressing, with portions of the concrete foundation visible at 2001 Ashby Avenue in South Berkeley, Alameda County. The project, named Maudelle Miller Shirek, will produce 87 affordable units, including twelve for formerly unhoused people, located directly across from the Ashby BART Station. Move-ins are expected by 2024.
