Housing at 2190 Shattuck Avenue has been in the works for almost a decade, and we are excited to support this proposal. Projects like this are opportunities for the City of Berkeley to achieve housing and climate goals by creating new, transit-oriented homes linked to the entire Bay Area. Send a letter to Berkeley’s officials urging them to move the project forward. Thanks for your support!

The project features:

• Transit Oriented Development: This project will provide much-needed transit-oriented housing in Berkeley with over 300 homes – including 30 homes dedicated to very-low-income residents – directly above the Downtown Berkeley BART Station and AC Transit hub.

• Downtown Walkability: This project will enhance the walkability of the Downtown Berkeley area by providing ground-floor retail and pedestrian amenities directly adjacent to the BART station.

• Complementary Architecture: 2190 Shattuck is designed by renowned Berkeley Architecture firm, Trachtenberg Architects, who have tremendous experience designing buildings of all scales in the city that complement their surrounding neighborhoods and communities.

• Environmentally Friendly: This is an environmentally-friendly building: 2190 Shattuck will meet LEED Gold-equivalent standards with solar panels, high-efficiency water heaters, low-flow plumbing and native plant landscaping.

• Community Investment: Landmark will provide approximately $6.6M in affordable housing in-lieu fees, $8.94M in City-related fees including the Downtown Streets and Open Space Improvement plan, public art fund, and transportation division funds alongside $1.47M paid to the Berkeley Unified School District.

• Diverse unit types: 2190 Shattuck’s unit designs (studios, 1-,2-,3-,4-, and 5-bedroom units) are tailored to accommodate a diverse range of Berkeley residents.
