Plans for a multi-family development at 2214 Cayuga Avenue in the Outer Mission, San Francisco, are heading before the city planning commission later this week. The site is on an oddly shaped lot situated between Cayuga Avenue, Sickles Avenue, and Alemany Boulevard. The site is near the Daly City BART Station, providing easy transit access to locations throughout the region.
A new multifamily affordable housing project has broken ground on Treasure Island, San Francisco. This one project, known as the Maceo May Apartments, will add just over a hundred new residential units, of which 65 are for veterans. The six-story structure is a modular construction, yielding 104,000 square feet across the 0.74-acre parcel. The building will be a mix of studios, one-bedrooms, and two bedrooms. The Chinatown Community Development Center and Swords of Plowshare, a Bay Area developer, will be developing the project jointly.
Permits have been filed for a residential expansion at 990 Geary Street in the Tenderloin, San Francisco. The building’s first floor will be refurbished to make way for seven new residential units, along with an interior renovation of the full structure. This will bring the unit count of the structure up from 60 apartments to 67.
This week, the biggest little permits include over sixty additional dwelling units, a 30,000 square foot new medical facility in Alameda, new monuments in Sacramento, and even a treehouse in Palo Alto. At this pace, over three thousand ADU’s would be produced within a year. Along with ADU’s, nineteen new single-family houses were applied for and thirty-four Tesla power walls across the counties. Perhaps the most surprising was a two-story additional dwelling unit in Palo Alto with an estimated construction price of nearly $1.4 million. If ever there was a point where an ADU became just another single-family house, this might be a contender.
Permits have been filed for the new building for 201 Cortland Avenue in Bernal Heights, San Francisco. The corner-plot, overlooking Cortland and Elsie Street, includes dividing the lot and adding residential space. Kennerly Architecture and Planning are responsible for the project.
