Excavation is well underway at 1900 Broadway, the site for a 36-story tower dubbed the Stak Site in Downtown Oakland. Behring Co is developing the project. At full buildout, 1900 Broadway and the adjoined Tapscott Building will add retail and 452 new apartments to the Bay Area housing market.
The 395-foot tower will yield 472,470 square feet, of which approximately 342,000 square feet will be a rentable residential area, 6,680 square feet for ground-level retail, and the remainder for 226 parking spaces. Of the 452 units, the majority will be one or two-bedroom units, with some studios and a handful of three and four-bedroom units.
Solomon Cordwell Buenz is responsible for the architecture, following initial designs from Oakland-based Brick. SCB’s curtain-wall tower is punctuated by thin champagne-tone bands outdoor terraces spanning roughly 500 square feet on every other floor.
