Filed in 2018, plans by Onni Group and IBI Group proposed a 638-foot tall apartment tower and a 16-story office building that would launch Emeryville, a dense city between Berkeley and Oakland, into the Bay Area’s skyline. Eventually, plans for the tower were withdrawn in 2020. Now, a new developer expects to build at 5801-5861 Christie Avenue, but with a significantly reduced profile.
People across the Bay Area have been told to expect an impressive onslaught of construction to start or finish during this new year. From Treasure Island to Mission Bay, Diridon Station to Downtown Oakland, crews are planning to break ground on skyscrapers and apartments, open a new light-rail subway, and start work on the Silicon Valley BART extension. The following is a list of the highlights we at SFYIMBY hope to share with our readers between now and 2023.
Trumark Homes recently announced that The Strand at Loch Lomond Marina in San Rafael has opened for sale. The new residential community includes 37 residences offered as a mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and condominium flats.
Rising 1,070 feet tall, the Salesforce Tower is the tallest building in the Bay Area, the 17th tallest in the United States, and the 91st tallest in the world. The distinctive glass-wrapped tower has been designed by one of the preeminent architects in the world, Pelli Clarke Pelli. Unsurprisingly, it remains a divisive contribution to the San Francisco skyline.
Beautifully detailed new renderings have been published for the high-rise proposal at 395 3rd Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The mixed-use tower is poised to replace a surface parking lot in the city with retail, public open space, and over five hundred apartments. Henning Larsen Architects, an internationally renowned Danish architecture firm, is responsible for the design.
