16th Street Resurgence

CADA has really come through in the redevelopment of 16th Street. East End Gateway 2 & 3 has turned out better than I had hoped. It took seven years from proposal to completion and the results are fantastic. Development Costs $26 million.

16th and N Street Proposal

 
D&S Development has proposed developing Sacramento City Unified School District-owned property at 16th and N streets in midtown Sacramento into a 132-room boutique brand hotel topped by 30 penthouses, 50 apartments through adaptive re-use of the former school building on the site, 9,400 square feet of retail and 10 townhomes on the property. The Sacramento Business Journal is reporting, the D&S proposal would lease rather than buy the property at 1619 N St. for 100 years at $100,000 annually, with 5 percent increases every five years. In doing so, the development would infuse the property with far more long-term value for the district. Estimated to be a $60 million investment. Two other proposal are also being considered for the site, including another mixed-use housing project dubbed The Jefferson Midtown and a proposal dubbed the California Tribal Life Center, which would involve relocation and expansion of the existing Native American health center in midtown, a cultural center, office space and housing.

Kings Arena Approved


The Sacramento city council has approved the final Kings arena plan last night with a 7-2 vote. The city will now go ahead with selling $298.4 million in bonds for the $477 million project, with about $226 million of that ultimately coming out of the public’s pocket. Over the life of the Bond the city will pay $715 million in principal and interest.

Construction on the sports facility will break ground this summer and open in time for the 2016-17 season. The 17,500-seat arena will be slightly larger than the Kings' current aging facility.
