I thought a good 10-15 floors of Tower 301 would be residential???

Tower 301 will be discussed on April 25th

Looking forward to seeing whether they will suggest any major modifications

Tower 301 plans show a full mixed use project, but broken down with separate office, residential, and retail areas. Residential wraps the podium garage on the north and east sides totaling 100 units. Huge retail spaces on the ground and floors above, including a rooftop space on top of the podium. The tower portion of the building is purely office.

Will be interesting to see what the Commissioners say about the project, whether they focus more on architectural design or the overall scale and mix of uses.

The pdf consistently refers to the building as being 40 levels, not the 33 we've all been reading about. It appears, to me, that it is 38 above grade and 2 below. This makes better sense now considering the 557' height.

Looking at Page 9 of the Commission Report, the floors are as follows:

Roof
Penthouses 1-3
Levels 5-33
Parking Levels 1-8
Ground Level
Basement (only one underground)

So the confusion comes with how/what they are calling each floor. To me it looks like there are 41 actual levels to the building, not counting the roof or basement. But if you take out the 8 levels of parking, that gives 33 floors of actual space.

Did anyone attend tonight’s meeting who would like to give us a breakdown?

I watched it online.

All in all, the commissioners were pleased with the design. There wasn't a single mention about the crown other than there will be some sort of lighting component. I was hoping they would argue it was too similar to 621 capitol.

The obvious question was the timeline. The architect said the building could be up-and-running in 3-5 years depending on how quickly they have the permits, leasing, and other factors. Unclear when construction would start.

The one quibble was about the parking structure and the amount of spaces dedicated to vehicles. Some commissioners pointed out about possibly reducing the amount and reconfigure it to residential units or other uses down the line. The parking garage will be open to the public on event nights at G1C.

An EIR is in the works. They plan on returning to the Commission either late this year or sometime next year for public hearing.

Mayor Darrell Steinberg on Thursday announced a proposal to use up to $47 million in hotel tax revenue to transform the Old Sacramento waterfront – adding a long lawn and concert stage, two rooftop bars and maybe even a docked barge with a swimming pool.

I’ really excited about this project. Anything that helps increase connectivity from downtown to the waterfront is a plus.

Capital Public Radio is moving their headquarters from Sac State to downtown. Should help liven up the corner of 8th and J hopefully it helps to accelerate additional development on the J Street corridor.

This is great news. That space has been vacant for what, only 19 years?

^^^ there's a really great eatery that recently opened across J on the same block called Backbone Café. I'd recommend.

ozone · #**7274** Posted **May 3, 2019, 3:45 PM**

^^^ isn't that the site of the former Mexican consulate? If so it’s only been vacant for 8 years.

19J is nearing completion, here's an update along with photos: https://www.bizjournals.com/sacramento/n...llest-housing-units-nearly-ready-at.html

The article also mentions that Nikky Mohanna's 10K project could start construction in early 2020.

I don't think an early 2020 start to Nikki Mohanna's 10th and K project is all that far off. Heck we're almost at the halfway point of 2019. Frankly, even if everything goes well, I wouldn't be surprised if 10K had a late 2020 or even mid-2021 start.

19J hasn't even opened yet; so we don't know if it'll be a success or not. (I think it'll do just fine.) . If it proves to be successful, then I can see investors showing interest in Mohanna's next project on 10th and K. But only time will tell. Also, I have noticed that a lot of new developments get sold as soon as they reach around 90% leasing. Then, the developer moves on to his or her next project. I can imagine that this may be another reason for waiting until 2020. Assuming she sells 19J for a profit, Nikki Mohanna would then have the capital she may need to put up for what looks to be a much more significant project than 19J. Again, this will take time.
