The Shirley Chisholm Village in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony last week, celebrating the completion of a first-of-its-kind project for San Francisco. The 100% affordable units are designated as a community for educators working in San Francisco, with the goal of making housing more accessible within the city limits.
Preliminary permits have been filed for an updated design at 915 Bryant Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The mixed-use development would add a new eight-story infill with 14 for-sale apartments and retail to the narrow parcel. Chandra Livingston of All of Us Properties is responsible for the development.
Modified plans have been filed for the supportive housing project within the North Berkeley BART Station redevelopment plan. The application utilizes Assembly Bill 2011 to streamline the approval process for the amended iteration, which has increased the overall scale and average size of the 85 units. Insight Housing is responsible for the application.
Construction has started for a new affordable housing complex at 429 MacArthur Avenue in the unincorporated North Fair Oaks community in San Mateo County. The project is set to add 86 apartments close to the Fair Oaks Community Center and public library. San Diego-based developer Affirmed Housing is the project sponsor.
Demolition permits have been filed for the existing buildings at 2128 Oxford Street in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. The application is related to plans for what could become the tallest building in the city if finished today, a 285-foot-tall apartment complex with 456 apartments above ground-level retail space. Chicago-based Core Spaces is responsible for the application, with planning and CEQA consultation from the Rhoades Planning Group.
