201 N Street - Southern Land Company proposal
In October of last year, the Southern Land Co. purchased Lot
X (201 N Street) for $16.75 million in Downtown Sacramento and has since proposed
building a 30-story residential tower with 237 units. The 2.5 acre site sits
directly across from Crocker Park and would also include offices, retail, restaurant
and parking for 426 vehicles. The project consists of residential tower rising up 350
feet with an open-air pool 165 feet high and a five story office building constructed
with mass timber.

Quite an ambitious (and welcome) proposal bringing both much-needed residents and high-rise living to downtown Sac.
Agree with you on feasibility considering Sac's track record and the lack of jobs that can afford that kind of rent/mortgage... from my outsider's view, the local employment base really hasn't changed since the Great Recession, so it's easy to foresee the same result as Saca's hole in the ground.
However - maybe I'm being overly optimistic - could the rise in remote work bring in folks from outside Sac to fill up a development like this? For example, I work in big tech, in a big city, paying big rent... and many of us aren't going back to the office, ever. And some companies won't lower salary too much, if at all, based on where you relocate. Wonder if this changes the outlook?
I agree. As evidenced by the kind of rents new midrise apartments are bringing in, it seems the demographics and desire for urban living have been changing. There's a huge demand for housing, we'll see if the time has come for developers take it to another level or not.
