A small office building at 6355 Telegraph Avenue in the Bushrod neighborhood of North Oakland has filed initial paperwork for a partial conversion to residential apartments. The preliminary designs brought by Earthquake and Structures, INC, call for the conversion of the upper two levels into six residential units, leaving the lower floor as the original office spaces.

Recent permit activity has been spotted regarding a much-delayed proposal for 655 Folsom Street in SoMa, San Francisco.

The structure has remained six years after the previously announced 2019 groundbreaking by developer Pillar Capital Group.
The proposed development at 1197 Lick Avenue in San Jose is to be altered, reducing the overall number of units but increasing the number of affordable units available within the project. The project is located on a three-building site, and is part of the Tamien Station Transit-oriented Development Plan. Developers, The Core Cos. and Republic Urban Properties have worked with Studio T-Square architects to put forth the revised plan.
