A CEQA Notice of Exemption and other planning approvals have collectively been met for a large apartment project located at 2588 Mission Street in San Francisco. The project will replace a previous building on the site, which was damaged more than 10 years ago in a major building fire. The new building has taken advantage of a density bonus rule to expedite the approval process.
A meeting is scheduled for today to discuss the possible extension of a Major Use Permit and Design Review Approval for 6445 Christie Avenue in Emeryville. Harvest Properties originally brought the project in 2022, but has yet to break ground despite being approved by the City of Emeryville. The meeting today will determine if they are allowed to extend the development timeframe another year or if the project is dead in the water.
