down the street, right in the heart of downtown, on the corner of Broadway and Jefferson, a large-footprint, one-story building is being taken out.

This revised Oakland tower is amazing and should get its own thread. I do not have the ability to make new threads, so I will post some details below (if someone can make threads please go ahead and copy this over):

OAKLAND | 1261 Harrison Street | 460 FT | 36 Floors
At Harrison and 13th.136 condos. Lowney Architecture.
Office/restaurant at base. Will require an upzoning. Looks amazing to me, I hope Oakland keeps getting modern architecture. This could be East Bay's tallest.

Oakland Development
 
Here are a few images i have been meaning to post regarding development along Oakland's 17th St corridor. This is some of the first major high-rise development happening in Oakland in almost 10 years. And its all going up quickly. Additionally, there is also a large amount of turnover and remodeling of storefronts along the commercial sections of the street.

Anyway, I did as you asked--you are certainly right it deserves a thread and I hope it gets built.

I'm loving the Oakland development!

Walked by last night, and indeed the garage has been fenced off and it looks like equipment is being moved in for demolition.

That would be so awesome. Wish it were taller but as a high rise deprived Oaklander, I'll take anything.

^^^ I dig it! Hope it's revised a bit, but the general design is an eye catcher.

Amount these bigger projects, there is a lot of mid rise development in action. the former site on Valdez seems to be reactivated. along with the 27th St Acura dealership. I Also noticed what seems to be work staging on 19th and Webster. Nice to see a projection of what it may look like in the coming years. the density is looking good, and filling out a skyline that has been poised for it.

at Hayward Park Caltrain in San Mateo, the first building of Station Park Green is finishing up, but is becoming blocked from view from the train by newer construction in the foreground. these are from late last month

Speaking of Mountain View:

Google’s massive housing and office plan wins approval

Quote:

Mountain View City Council Tuesday night unanimously approved a sweeping redevelopment plan, clearing the way for Google and other developers to create a dense, city-like campus of offices and homes in a housing-starving region.

The new master plan could reshape North Bayshore, home to Google headquarters, into the most ambitious new development in the Bay Area with nearly 10,000 new homes and apartments, about 3.6 million square feet of office space, and a mix of pedestrian-friendly parks, retail shops and businesses.

...

Planners envision a redevelopment of the North Bayshore office park into a collection of office buildings, retail shops and entertainment, and three new neighborhoods called Joaquin, Shorebird and Pear. About 150 acres of the project are dedicated to residential development — including single family homes and apartments.

The city will allow up to 9,850 new housing units, with 70 percent targeted for studio or one-bedroom apartments. It also sets a goal to have 20 percent of the apartments be affordable units.

The plan calls for transforming the suburban office park filled with Google employees into a high-density, mixed-used district. Buildings are expected to be taller — up to 8 stories for offices and 15 stories for residential units — and friendlier to pedestrians, cyclists and public transit.
Fifteen stories in Mountain View? I never thought I'd see the day. I hope this isn't a typo. Out of all the cities on the Peninsula, Mountain View (along with RWC) really is leading the charge in adding new housing.

https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4693/...66169d33_z.jpg work is ramping up on 1640 Broadway. Sadly, the Vintage mural, with thrash metal grandma, will soon no longer be visible.

https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4639/...9e939c7e_z.jpg Looks to be site prep work starting on Lennar's project on 19th and Harrison.

the new solid-looking building next to Redwood City Caltrain is looking almost done from the outside...
