The City of Sacramento and the Sacramento Kings have announced plans to replace the basketball team’s vacated home, the Sleep Train Arena, with a new 400-bed medical facility for California Northstate University. Located in the Natomas area north of downtown, the sports arena will be demolished and replaced with a building designed by San Francisco-based Fong & Chan Architects.
Pre-application permits have been filed for a hotel-to-apartments conversion of Z-Hotel at 233 Broadway in Oakland’s waterfront Jack London District. The project would renovate the 105-guestroom hotel, with 24 more units to replace on-site parking. Baran Studio Architecture is responsible for the design.
New pre-application permits were filed for the entitled project at 2305 Webster Street in the Northgate-Waverly neighborhood between 23rd and 24th Street abutting Downtown Oakland. The recent application is larger than a previous iteration as it includes affordable housing thanks to the State Density bonus program. Avi Nevo of Segula Investments is responsible for the development, with San Francisco-based Ankrom Moisan Architects responsible for the design.
Permits have been submitted seeking the approval of a mixed-use structure at 51 Innes Court, Bayview Hunters Point. The project proposal includes the construction of residential units with resident-service offices. Lennar Urban is the property owner. Ian Birchall and Associates is managing the design concept and construction.
Recent photographs show significant progress has been made in phase one of the waterfront Brooklyn Basin development in Oakland since the last site visit by SFYIMBY. Groundbreaking has occurred for 845 Embarcadero, wood is rising for Parcel A, and a platform for future pedestrian space by Parcel J is taking shape. Oakland-based Signature Development Group is developing the project, with joint financing from Signature, China-based Zarsion Holdings Group, and Reynolds & Brown.
