Demolition permits have been requested for the existing two-story apartment complex at 2435 Haste Street in Southside, Berkeley. The development would replace the 56-year-old eight-unit building with an eight-story infill. The property owner is listed as a family trust.
Preliminary permits have been filed invoking Senate Bill 684 for a residential development at 2201 Blake Street in Southside, Berkeley. The proposal would remake the rear yard behind the historic Bartlett Houses, converting a former stable into housing and constructing a three-story duplex. Studio KDA is responsible for the application on behalf of the property owner, Nathan D. George of NX Ventures.
Plans have been increased for an 11-story apartment complex at 2920 Shattuck Avenue in South Berkeley, Alameda County. The application has added a floor for a total of 242 dwelling units to the corner lot overlooking the Berkeley Bowl grocery store. NX Ventyres is responsible for the application.
New building permits have been submitted for the proposed project located at 1899 Oxford Street in Berkeley. The permits reflect a small reduction in the total number of proposed units from 222 to 216. The new permit also describes plans to construct the residential portion by using a modular unit style, which was not previously mentioned. Otherwise, the permit details reflect a size and presentation that remain in line with earlier project iterations. Berkland Foundation remains the project’s developer.
The Berkeley Planning Commission will hold its monthly meeting later today at the North Berkeley Senior Center. One of the meeting’s main focuses will be the new San Pablo Avenue Specific Plan, which will guide the future development of the entire San Pablo Avenue economic corridor. If approved by the planning commission, this plan may have far-reaching impacts on the future of development in a large swath of Western Berkeley.
