Belvedere City Council recently pushed forward the residential proposal along Mallard Pointe, Marin County. The 40-unit project is the city’s largest housing development to get greenlit in decades despite stiff resistance from local NIMBYs. If the project had been rejected, the developer was prepared to pursue a much larger infill using the Builder’s Remedy.
New development permits have been submitted seeking the approval of a new housing project at 3736 Stockton Boulevard in Oak Park, Sacramento. The project proposal includes the construction of a mixed-use building offering spaces for residential and retail uses.
A new residential project has been proposed for development at 1715 Elm Street in El Cerrito. The project proposal includes the construction of a residential community offering 14 for-sale condominiums. The project proposal also includes the restoration and relocation of the existing historic structure on site and converting it to a community serving use. LCA Architects Inc is responsible for the designs. Camp & Camp Associates is the landscape architect.
Some residents have never been happy with plans for 955 Sansome Street, starting with the preliminary seven-story application in 2021 for the corner lot by Telegraph Hill in San Francisco. Since then, three iterations have gone through the planning department, steadily growing to ten floors, then sixteen, and now 24 floors tall. The project application states that the proposal “aspires to restore and revitalize an underutilized site while providing much needed higher density housing for the city.”
New plans have been filed for a nine-story affordable housing infill at 249 Pennsylvania Avenue in San Francisco’s Potrero Hill neighborhood. The new plans could finally bring housing to the longtime vacant property. Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Company is the project developer.
