Here is some additional information about the project:
- Eva Hill of Venture Oaks Real Estate is the developer.
- It would be a 275 room, 14 story hotel.
- It would have 50 luxury apartments on the top floors.
- It would have ground floor retail and a rooftop bar.
- The existing building will be demolished. It has not been occupied in over a decade.
- The developer would like to start construction in 2020 and open the hotel in 2022.
- Due to its location, the project can qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Opportunity Zone investment.
- In October the top Sacramento hotels had an occupancy rate of 85.2%. This is up from the prior year, when the Convention Center was still open, and the occupancy rate was 82.1%.
I was in San Francisco this past weekend, and I saw a lot of buildings under construction. Most, if not all, were in the 7-15 story range. Yes, SF got the Salesforce Tower and a few other tall buildings, but the trend for residential and hotel buildings seems to be mid-rise. I live in Southern California, and just about every new, "urban-living" apartment or condo building is 8 floors or shorter.
