55 Years of History at 301 Capitol Mall
The lengthy history of 301 Capitol Mall can be exhausting, but as of last Friday, CalPERS will now sell the property and cancel the proposed 33-story mixed-use high-rise. For the last 16 years, CalPERS has spent nearly $70 million buying and maintaining the property, and now after three failed attempts to build at the site, it will be sold. The city block now resembles a wildlife refuge where raccoons and other habitat are thriving.

| 55 years of history at 301 Capitol Mall |
In 2016 CalPERS teamed up with CIM Group and proposed a
30-story mixed-use building, the odd stacking of the tower was not accepted
well by the public and later canceled. By late 2019 another proposal was
offered that was as CalPERS teamed up with the development form Hines. This
proposal was to be Sacramento’s tallest if built at 33-stories and 557 feet
tall. It was seen as a better design, but as 2020 took hold and the pandemic
pushed people to do more work from home, it became apparent there was no interest
in more office space downtown. Currently, the Sacramento office market is in
its eight straight quarter occupancy losses, millions of square feet are available
and it might take many years to lease them back up to pre-pandemic levels.

Colliers Sacramento Office Snapshot: Q1 2022
| Colliers Sacramento office development pipeline 2022 Q1 |
Occupancy losses continue in the first quarter for the
Sacramento office market for the eighth straight quarter. The State of
California accounted for the most negative absorption across the region this
quarter and the Sacramento regions availability rate continues to rise as
tenants office needs implement a hybrid work strategy. Colliers sees the
outlook starting to look brighter with leasing activity starting to pick-up in the next six months as well as sales increase. Read the full ColliersSacramento report here.

Sacramento Republic FC Stadium Proposed Again
Remember last year in March when Ron Burkle pulled out of being the lead investor for Sacramento’s MLS team to build a new stadium? Today the Sacramento Republic FC declared they have nearly 1$ billion in private funding for a stadium in The Railyards. Very little detail has been made public about whom is funding this proposal, but it sounds as if they found investment 'whales' to help bring MLS soccer to Sacramento. According to KCRA, “There are still some contractual things that need to be worked out but their hope is to be wrapped up in the next 90-120 days thus moving the project forward”. As you can see in the rendering, the new stadium looks very different and there is no shade for the fans.

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.
