Santana Row 'Capstone' building is officially under construction

Development in the Santana Row neighborhood will likely never be fully complete, but the last major project with an official Santana Row street address is now underway. '700 Santana Row' will provide a bookend to what is one of the most successful mixed-use developments in the world.

The 284,000 SQFT premium office building will be located at the very end of the row next to the CineArts movie theater. The offices feature 13-foot ceilings, expansive floor plans, and a 15,000 SQFT garden terrace on the roof. The ground floor will have a signature plaza that will be open to all.

Parking will be available in a new parking structure that will also be open to the public during evenings and weekends. Thankfully, Santana Row will be offering shuttle service to Diridon Station as an alternate transportation option. The total cost of the project is expected to be between $205-215 million and completion should wrap up by Q3 2018 according to the SVBJ.

New renderings of The Graduate in downtown San Jose, located next to San Jose State University. It doesn't have those inflatable air dancers anymore and they changed the color from yellow to orange.

Quote:
The Graduate is a 260-unit/1,039 bed off-campus student housing project located on a 1.5-acre site, located within one block of the San Jose State University (SJSU) in San Jose, California. It will be a newly constructed property designed to meet the needs of students and will be located one block west of SJSU and less than 0.5 miles from the central core of the campus.

Demolition and construction will begin Summer 2017.

The Graduate is expected to be completed in 2019.

Renderings from Amcal Housing
Was just about to talk about the new renders, thanks gillynova, Amcal seems optimistic, especially about breaking ground soon, and building out. It will be the first high-rise to break ground since Silvery towers if they beat #Diridon to the punch, which they might well do, I have seen no action from their end.

http://news.theregistrysf.com/downto...ning-director/

Quote:
The project, reaching 202 feet in height, will provide 260 housing units containing a total of 1,039 beds and 14,800 square feet of ground floor commercial-retail along East San Carlos and South Third Streets. Although legislation prohibits placing restrictions on who can occupy the units, the residential component will target students attending nearby San Jose State University.

The “L-shaped” tower drops down dramatically to a parking structure containing the bulk of amenity space on a 24,380 square foot recreational deck fronting South Second Street. A pool, spa, two bocce courts and an outdoor seating area are featured on the deck. The parking structure underneath offers 265 spaces in one below grade and three above grade levels. In an attempt to encourage students to bike to class, 577 bicycle spaces are included in the plans in lieu of additional car spots. Other building amenities are on the second through fourth floors offering study rooms, a sauna, steam rooms, yoga studio, multipurpose room and fitness facility.

Quote:
The project proposes to construct up to 260 student housing units and 17,190 square feet (s.f.) of ground-floor retail space within a 19-story tower. Parking for the project will be provided within a four-level parking garage accessed via a left-turn only driveway located along S. 2nd Street. The parking garage will include 265 parking spaces, 71 motorcycle parking spaces, and space for storage of 400 bicycles.
A bit of inconsistency on the number of bike spaces, but having only 265 spaces should keep traffic down, instead of giving one per student, granted they only need cars for going out to the suburbs or other cities from there, and with BART being around by then, shouldn't really be a necessity as long as they are willing to Uber/Lyft or take the 523 or 500 to and from. Since camera 12 shut down one has to go out to the suburbs to see the movies, so people may want a car for that. I wonder if students will find all the Zipcar options more doable.

From Mercury News:

http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/05/0...a-tech-campus/

SAN JOSE — Trammell Crow and other real estate investors have begun to gobble up large and small parcels in downtown San Jose — spending more than $70 million — in areas that could create one or more mega-campuses for tech giants or other big corporate players.

Property buyers have collected parcels primarily along Autumn and Montgomery streets south of the SAP Center, according to this newspaper’s review of the transactions, which occurred in December, January, February, March and April. In addition, property owners say they have given one of the buyers multiple options to purchase even more nearby parcels.

sjm-REALDEALS-0504-web2One or more mega-campuses in any of three areas where the purchases have occurred — a proposed Trammell Crow office and housing project, an area where properties are being assembled to the west, or a site for a possible baseball stadium — would be nothing short of a game changer for downtown San Jose if any are built.

“It will be as big as anything that’s ever happened in downtown San Jose,” said Mark Ritchie, president of San Jose-based Ritchie Commercial Real Estate. “It would be like the Uber deal in downtown Oakland, but on steroids. It would be like the Mission Bay area in San Francisco that used to be old rail yards and now is an unbelievable metropolis.”

All told, investors have spent about $72.5 million collecting an eclectic group of several properties.

Interest in downtown San Jose real estate near the Diridon Station is well established, said Nanci Klein, an official with the San Jose Economic Development Department.

“It’s a fantastic area, and it will be an area rich in amenities,” Klein said.

The acquisitions include an iconic but small office building, a single-family home, small businesses and an old telephone company building.

Trammell Crow was mum about the purpose of its recent property purchases, but Ritchie — a veteran commercial real estate observer — said that Mountain View-based search giant Google seems like a good candidate for a tech campus in the area.


“Google makes sense as a company that would move into these properties, including the Trammell Crow project,” Ritchie said. “It’s a smart move to be looking at this part of downtown San Jose.”

That area already has considerable transit access and stands to gain even more, with two BART stations planned in the vicinity.

Google, which in recent years has been actively expanding its operations in Mountain View, Sunnyvale and north San Jose, didn’t respond to multiple requests for a comment about the situation in downtown San Jose.

The property purchases are occurring in an area that borders three well-known downtown San Jose sites: SAP Center, the site once proposed as a baseball stadium for the Oakland A’s, and a mammoth office and housing project proposed by a joint venture led by realty developer Trammel Crow.

Trammell Crow’s proposal includes a centerpiece consisting of 1 million square feet of offices that could become a big campus for a tech firm. The project would rise on 8.3 acres bought in September 2015 by the Trammel Crow venture for $58.5 million. Trammell Crow also has proposed construction of 325 apartment units.

“The market interest fully validates the strength of that location for transit-oriented development,” Don Little, senior vice president of the Trammell Crow Co., said Wednesday. “The market interest could not be stronger. We fully expect a big movement of tech companies into downtown San Jose.”

Trammell Crow’s interest appears to extend well beyond its existing proposal. The developer has begun to broaden its beachhead in downtown San Jose, Santa Clara County property records show.

A partnership controlled by Trammell Crow has spent $17.5 million buying properties, mostly along Autumn and Santa Clara streets. An office building at 450 W. Santa Clara St., a short distance from SAP Center, was the most expensive of the Trammell Crow purchases, in an $11 million transaction during early April. The Trammell Crow affiliate, TC Agoge Associates, paid cash for the acquisitions.

“It’s premature for us to be commenting about our business plans,” Little said, referring to the Trammell Crow affiliate’s property purchases.

A mystery buyer, Rhyolite Enterprises, completed the largest of the property purchases. That $55 million all-cash deal was completed a few days before Christmas by Ryholite. County records show Rhyolite Enterprises has connections to the same Irvine-based law firm that’s sometimes used by Google for its property deals. The law firm didn’t return a phone call requesting a comment.

What’s more, Trammell Crow is poised to add to its shopping spree for properties in the area.

Peggy Schlosser and her daughter, Sue Dee Shenk, whose family owns parcels in the area, both said Trammell Crow has struck a deal with them to buy more of the family’s properties on South Autumn Street.

“They want to move west,” Schlosser said of Trammell Crow’s plans.

Schlosser and Shenk recalled that Trammell Crow began discussing property transactions around last September or October.

“This sounds exciting,” Shenk said. “We hope it can be developed and that it includes affordable housing.”

Japantown Square | 6 floors and 6 floors | 22M and 20M (71ft and 66ft)

The old Corporation Yard will be developed to two apartment buildings

Quote:
The subject property was originally developed in the late 1880s as San Jose’s second (third?) Chinatown, named Heinlenville for its owner and benefactor, John Heinlen. Mr. Heinlen retained prominent local architect Theodore Lenzen to design what he and the Chinese merchants intended to be a permanent home for San Jose’s Chinese population. Aware of the history of arson attacks against previous Chinatowns in San Jose, Mr. Heinlen specified that the new Chinatown be built in brick, and was supplied with both piped water and sewers.

By the 1930s, most of the buildings of Heinlenville were vacant. Gradually, the block bounded by Taylor, Jackson, Sixth, and Seventh Streets were taken over by the City of San Jose for use as a corporation yard, and the remains were buried under asphalt and buildings. In 2008, Sonoma State University performed a series of archaeological excavations in limited areas of the project site. These excavations uncovered the remains of houses, restaurants, and stores, as well as those of Heinlenville’s original Ng Shing Gung Temple
The area around the the Chinatown became Japantown as it was the only area where Japanese immigrants could settle without being hassled.

Quote:
A “Great Good Place” in the Heart of Japantown
San Jose’s most unique urban neighborhood will soon be home to one of its most unique developments. A place where residents and visitors can pick up fresh offerings from local farmers, browse an eclectic mix of local shops, restaurants and boutiques, and gather to watch an impromptu practice session of world-renowned San Jose Taiko. Japantown Square will create what the community has envisioned as a “Great Good Place” – residences, local retail, and a new home for San Jose Taiko and local arts organizations - all oriented around a new public park and plaza.

Japantown Square will bring world-class urban design, modern urban living, new local shops, and a home for the beloved San Jose Taiko to the heart of Japantown. When complete, the project will include:
Approximately 532 modern apartments in two buildings, including top-of-class resident amenities
Up to 20,300 square feet of new neighborhood-serving commercial space
The new Creative Center for the Arts with up to 60,000 square feet of arts-related space, including a new home for San Jose Taiko
A new ¾-acre public park and plaza capable of hosting public events including community festivals and the weekly Farmers Market
Approximately 827 new parking spaces to serve residents, commercial tenants and the Creative Center for the Arts
It is anticipated that the developer will break ground this year.

Here is a copy of the FAA restrictions for downtown in terms of height above mean sea level. The ground is generally about 80-100ft above sea level downtown. The tallest building in the city is the 88 at 286ft tall at the corner of San Fernando and 3rd St downtown.

They're actually building something now, instead of just digging out for the foundation.

The project to replace the Greyhound station has been approved.

Massive high-rise project eyed for downtown San Jose's Greyhound site

San Jose's Greyhound bus terminal could sprout two residential towers totaling more than 700 units in what would be the largest project by unit count ever proposed for the central business district.
KT Urban, downtown's most prodigious high-rise developer, last week turned in an early concept to the San Jose Planning Department for the roughly 1.6-acre site at 70 S. Almaden Ave., according to city records. The application is preliminary, meaning it is meant merely to gather feedback from staff. But it provides the first public glimpse at what KT envisions for the location, and is a clear signal that the redevelopment of the parcel is moving forward, five months after I first reported that KT was in contract to buy the land from Greyhound.

...

The KT Urban concept would see a 24-story and a 23-story tower resting on three levels of underground parking. The plans show multiple potential orientations for the buildings, including east/west and north/south layouts, and it's unclear which direction the developer will be going. One tower would include 294 units, while the other would have 414. The buildings could reach 241 and 251 feet tall.

...

Hey Cardinal,

Can you, or anyone, confirm the report from cranewatch below? Are there really cranes at all those sites?

The answer is no. There are limited number of construction cranes in comparison to all those proposals. 2 cranes at Silvery Towers, one at Marshall Squares, and 1 at Station Village, at least downtown, I don't track other construction sites that well.

Two residential high-rises could soon be headed to downtown San Jose. The city approved permits and environmental studies for a residential project at 70 South Almaden Ave., formerly a Greyhound Lines station, the Mercury News reports. KT Urban plans to build 23-story and 24-story towers with 708 condo units and 14K SF of retail. Construction is expected to begin July 2018 and be completed by 2020 to receive fee reductions under San Jose’s Downtown High-Rise Incentive Program. No new high-rise projects have broken ground in downtown since 2015. The project is expected to generate $15M in city revenue for parks, $22M for affordable housing programs and up to $3M in property taxes.

New proposed 18-story building in Downtown San Jose

Quote:
New permit of a 18 story building, north of downtown San Jose with 304 residential units and 10,146 square feet of retail on a 0.77 gross acre site (199 Bassett Street). The project includes four levels of underground parking (1 space per unit), 84 bike spaces, a fitness room, and an outdoor terrace with a pool and hot tub. Unit sizes include studios, one bedrooms, and two bedrooms.

The site is sandwiched between Highway 87 and Coleman Avenue, and is located in the northernmost part of downtown. The proposed tower will be somewhat isolated until the vacant land between San Pedro Market and the site is developed; although, this land should not be vacant for long. In the interim, the applicant will need to work on addressing connectivity issues with the rest of downtown so that the residents are not intimidated by or uninterested in walking and biking in the area.

If approved, the proposed tower will be a great addition to the downtown area, as more downtown residents will increase the viability for downtown amenities, retail, and restaurants. Many potential commercial tenants state that the current downtown residential density is too low for them to justify moving into a vacant commercial space, so every new project helps alleviate this concern.
