It does look strangely squat in the third rendering (the view from the path around Lake Merritt), but I like the somewhat traditional modernist design.

Either way I hope this gets built and shows other developers that higher buildings are viable in the downtown core.

Hopefully the podium park and rooftop observation deck will be open to public too.

Most definitely, Oakland deserves to finally have a tower that breaks through the table top we currently have

Demolition Permits Filed For 1510 Webster Street, Downtown Oakland
BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:30 AM ON JUNE 29, 2021

Demolition permits have been filed for the existing four-story building at 1510 Webster Street to make a new 19-story mixed-use high-rise. The application comes after the planning commission approved the 182-unit affordable housing proposal in March of this year. oWOW is responsible for the development and design, operating through 1510 Webster Street LLC.

Construction will produce 182 units, of which 16 will be deed-restricted for low-income households earning 50-80% of the Area Median Income. The remaining 166 units will all be priced for residents earning between 90-135% of the Area Median Income. In addition, parking will be included for 182 resident bicycles and 40 guest bicycles.

The 195-foot tall structure will rise from a 14,110 square foot parcel to yield 13,290 square feet, with 3,590 square feet of retail. Unit sizes will range from 33 one-bedrooms, 77 two-bedrooms, 54 three-bedrooms, and 18 four-bedroom units.

Permits Filed For A Mixed-Use At 1451 7th Street In West Oakland



BY: PALAK JAPLOT 5:30 AM ON AUGUST 3, 2021

Preliminary development permits have been filed to propel the Mandela Station project at West Oakland BART development located at 1451 7th Street in West Oakland. Development agreement and a preliminary application for future changes to the building height and approved uses have been submitted.

San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District is the property owner. JRDV Architects is responsible for the design concepts and construction.

The project proposes to bring 762 residential units to the mixed-use development. Office space measuring 382,460 square feet and retail space of 75,000 square feet will be included. A total of 240 affordable houses and 522 market-rate apartments will be designed inside the 320-foot high residential tower.

The project features two mid-rise buildings (80-100’ tall), a high-rise building (320’ tall), potential retail under the BART tracks, and public plazas. Non-residential space measuring 8,540 square feet and 440 above-grade parking stalls will also be constructed.

...

A recreational park space spanning an area of over 75,000 will be developed. The 30,030 square foot Mandela Plaza will offer a community gathering place with seating around artificial turf grass. Center Square (15,950 square feet) will feature a landscaped path merging 5th Street with the BART entrance. Art Alley pedestrian walkway, measuring 20,900 square feet, connects Chester Street and Mandela Parkway with BART. Lastly, the Undertrack Plaza will house food kiosks, pop-up events, art fairs, and live music.

Atlas Tower 70% Leased As Public Art Installed At Base In Downtown Oakland
BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:30 AM ON SEPTEMBER 24, 2021

Carmel Partners has unveiled Ever Green, a new permanent public art installation by Bay Area artist Taraneh Hemami. The 24-foot tall sculpture coincides with Carmel and Greystar announcing Atlas is 70% leased. Located at 385 14th Street in Downtown Oakland, the 40-story residential tower has added 633 rental units to the city.



The 400-foot tall building, designed by Solomon Cordwell Buenz, is the tallest residential tower in the Bay Area outside of San Francisco. The structure contains 901,500 square feet of floor area, with 692,000 square feet for residential use, 190,000 square feet for a 594-car garage, parking for 161 bicycles, and 17,350 square feet of street-level retail. Over 26,500 square feet of private open space is included, with balconies on almost every floor. Two-thirds of the 633 rental apartments will be in the tower and a third inside the 95-foot podium. Home sizes range from studios to two bedrooms spanning 493 to 1,230 square feet.

...



Unit prices range from $2,808 per month for a studio to $8,279 for a top-floor two-bedroom residence. Greystar is even offering two months free with new leases.

Expanded Plans Filed For 1510 Webster Street, Downtown Oakland

BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:00 AM ON DECEMBER 9, 2021

New permits have been filed with expanded plans for the mixed-use tower at 1510 Webster Street, Downtown Oakland. While the city had original approved plans for a 182-unit tower, the developer is now to build 222 new residences, of which 35 will be affordable. oWOW is responsible for the development and design.

The application for expanding residential capacity was first filed in July and later approved. Demolition permits, filed in late June, are still on hold pending a field check by city staff.



The 187-foot tall structure will yield 175,750 square feet with 150,200 square feet dedicated to residential use, 2,930 square feet for retail, 9,500 square feet for an office, and 2,590 square feet for amenities. Additionally, there will be nearly 600 square feet of private open space and 5,630 square feet of communal open space on the second level and 17th-floor terrace.

...

Parking will be included for 76 bicycles in a roughly 400 square foot room in the basement, easily accessible through a staircase in the main lobby.

...

The building features a covered interior plaza for pedestrians and residents alike, bisecting the main lobby from the retail and office space. The architects write of this unique space, “the intended use of the plaza space is to create an inviting public space while maintaining proper security for the access points to the residential and commercial spaces. The public plaza will also help to serve as the focal point for the development’s public art feature.”



Facade materials on the podium will include wood slats, terracotta tiled columns, and dark metal mullions to frame the large windows. The tower levels will be covered with cream flush and white aluminum panels.
