The City of Mountain View has approved a large mixed-use masterplan development at 675-685 East Middlefield Road within the East Whisman Precise Plan. The proposal would replace an existing low-slung office with a six-story office block and over eight hundred apartments. San Mateo-based Prometheus Real Estate Group is the project developer.
A new affordable housing project celebrated its inauguration at its project site located at 965 Weeks Street in East Palo Alto. The project proposal included the development of a new affordable housing complex comprised of four structures offering 136 residential units, onsite services, and parking.
A new three-story building has been proposed for use as the African American Holistic Resource Center (AAHRC) on a project site located at 1890 Alcatraz Avenue in Berkeley. The project proposal includes the development of a three-story facility to host services to benefit the African American community with education, employment, health, mental health, and housing advocacy and support. The City of Berkeley is the property owner. The design team includes the AAHRC Steering Committee, City Staff, and AE3 Partners, Inc.
New renderings have been published alongside zoning permits for a 23-story tower at 2029 University Avenue in Downtown Berkeley, Alameda County. Project developer Laconia Development has submitted two concurrent plans for residential or student housing within the identically-sized high rise. Either way, the team is pursuing one of the tallest projects in the city’s pipeline.
For the last twelve days of 2024, SF YIMBY will look back on each month and reflect on the biggest stories we covered. For our final installment of this series, here are the most substantial stories covered throughout December, which include new renderings for a more timid tower on Sloat across from the San Francisco Zoo. We covered construction progress for several big affordable projects across the city, while new plans were revealed for several projects region-wide.
Continuing with the self-reflection, I’d like to break the fourth wall here with a New Year’s Eve note of appreciation…
