Renderings For UC Berkeley Dorms at 2200 Bancroft Way, Berkeley
By: Andrew Nelson 5:30 am on October 22, 2024
New details have been published alongside a recent public meeting for a 23-story student dorm at 2200 Bancroft Way in Southside, Berkeley. The undergraduate dorm is expected to replace a university-owned two-story commercial structure and surface parking lot with as many as 1,634 beds and a new dining facility. UC Berkeley Capital Strategies is responsible for the application.

Philadelphia-based KieranTimberlake is responsible for the design. Illustrations show a minimalist contemporary design wrapped in white and grey panels around floor-to-ceiling windows. The podium will be clad with stone panels, while the tower facade will have glass-fiber reinforced concrete panels. Speaking with YIMBY, the UC Berkeley Capital Strategies representative emphasizes that while the renderings have recently been shared, the team is “planning to present the proposed project to the UC Board of Regents for approval in early 2025. Until then, the project’s design and construction schedule are not finalized.”
The 0.8-acre property is located on the southwest corner of the UC Berkeley Campus along Fulton Street between Bancroft Way and Durant Avenue. Residents will be a block from Shattuck Avenue and three blocks from the retail-rich Telegraph Avenue to the east. Downtown Berkeley BART Station will be under ten minutes away on foot.
