For nearly a decade, New York YIMBY has covered the architecture, planning, and real estate of New York City and the Tri-State Area. Following the August launches of Chicago YIMBY and Philly YIMBY, we are excited to announce our latest expansion into the San Francisco metropolitan area. YIMBY’s latest sister website for the City By the Bay is now officially live.
The project rising at 706 Mission Street is one of the tallest projects rising in the city of San Francisco. Located in the SoMa neighborhood, it is bringing 146 new homes, a ground-level space for retail or restaurant, and a new four-story location for the city’s Mexican Museum designed by Mexico City-based TEN Arquitectos. The development comprises two towers, the historic ten-story Aronson building and the newly built 45-story tower designed by Handel Architects. Its future residents plan to move in by the end of the year.
Development permits have been filed for the 20-story apartment tower at 2425 Durant Avenue in Berkeley’s Southside neighborhood. The application seeks to replace two low-slung residential structures with 117 apartments. Qian Wang of Collabhome is listed as the property owner through 2425 Durant Avenue LLC.
New permits have been filed for a four-story infill at 3124 High Street in Maxwell Park, Oakland. The proposal aims to replace a vacant parcel with housing using the State Density Bonus Program. Shatara Architecture is responsible for the application.
New permits have been filed to increase the scale of a mixed-use development at 2154 MacArthur Boulevard in the Dimond District of Oakland. The residential component has increased by a floor and a substantial increase in unit count. Redwood City-based Dollinger Properties is responsible for the application.
