Mid-Rise Apt. Proposed Along American River

In the River District along the American River, residential towers have been proposed with a total on 826 units. The development is proposed on Burcut Drive off Richards Blvd. which is currently a warehouse area and is currently a tough part of town to be in day or night. The location is right up next to I-5 and the upper floors looking west will hear and see 10 lanes of freeway traffic 24/7.

This proposal named American River One would include two towers nearly 200 feet tall, a third tower 150 feet tall and another tower at 109 feet tall. No plans have been submitted to the city or cost estimate for construction. 

The California Tower & Aggie Square Plan

UC Davis Health Sacramento campus is undergoing a
 massive expansion over the next decade

The proposed California Tower will include a 16-story, 332-bed hospital facility and 5-story pavilion. The $3.75 billion project is scheduled to have patients moving in by 2030 and is currently in the design development phase and will replace the north-south wing originally built in 1929 and the addition from the 1950’s and will be demolished in the coming years. These were images out of Comstock’s Magazine promotional supplement for March 2022. UC Davis Health is also investing 1.1 billion in the nearby AggieSquare where both research facilities and housing will improve the neighborhood.

The propose California Tower is expected to be completed in 2030

ENVOY Anthem Cathedral Square Construction

ENVOY at 1030 J Street in Downtown Sacramento

A tower crane rises over the 11^th & J Street ENVOY construction site as the seven story building fills a corner that has been an eyesore for decades. After several proposals have come and gone, this project looks to be built with quality materials and should bring a lot of people into the area to live. There will be 153 rentals apartments above the retail on the ground floor. This stretch of J Street is in awful shape, hopefully when this is completed others in the private sector and the city government will push out the undesirables who bring down the area.  https://www.hrgarchitects.com/cathedral-square-mixeduse-apartment

11th & J Street Mixed-Use Proposal

Proposed Anthem Cathedral Square would mixed-use with 153 apt.

After many decades of being in decline, it looks as if this rough stretch of J Street will get a project the market can support. The proposal named Anthem Cathedral Square will be a seven-story mixed-use structure with 153 apartments with retail space on the ground floor. As reported by The SacBee, this proposal would be mid-range of market rate so they will be affordable to more people. It will replace three largely empty and outdated buildings that cover more than half of the block on J Street.

For those who wanted more from this site, like a high-rise, this is something the market does not support. Anthem looked into building a 20-story high-rise but they found it was to expensive. This finding is historically correct, back in 2006 developers St Anton / Cordano Company proposed a 26 Stories, 233 Units with 15K Retail and that never left the drawing board. I hope the developer can get this going soon while the  economy is still strong. 

Ground Testing for 19J

19J  - 11-story, 175-unit project

The Sacramento Bee's reporting that Mohanna Development Co. will be conducting several weeks of ground testing for foundation piles on site, and formal construction should begin before the end of the month. The building would then open 16 months later. These are positive signs and way beyond my expectations... lets hope it all falls into place.

The SacBee’s reporting that midtown has another proposal for a mid-rise building, this one named 19J is located at the corner of 19^th & J Street. M.H. Mohanna Development has expressed that the project would be “self-financed” and could begin building as soon as next year. At 124 feet, this 11 story structure would have 173 residential units and 7,000 SF of ground floor retail.
