Project Description: The Fourth & Central Project (Project) would generally be located at 400 S. Central Avenue and consist of three distinct sites (North, South, and West Sites), with a total land area of approximately 7.7 acres [333,603 gross square feet of lot area pre-dedication]. The Project Site is comprised of the following areas: North Site (1.35 acres) located at the northeast corner of 4th Street and Central Avenue; South Site (5.98 acres) located south of 4th Street between Central Avenue and Alameda Street; and West Site (0.32 acres) located at the northwestern intersection of Gladys Avenue and Central Avenue. The Project would demolish the existing surface parking and cold storage facility uses on the West and South Sites, and would adaptively reuse, if feasible, a portion of a six-story cold storage building on the North Site, while demolishing the remaining warehouse uses. The Project would include a mix of residential, office, and restaurant/retail uses within 10 distinct buildings within the Project Site totaling up to 2,318,534 square feet of floor area. The Project would include: 1,589 residential units, including affordable housing units, totaling 1,761,673 square feet; 411,113 square feet of office uses; and 145,748 square feet of restaurant/retail uses. The Project would include 90,113 square feet of publicly-accessible open space, including paseos between Central Avenue and Alameda Street, plazas, and pocket parks, within the North and South Sites. The proposed buildings would range in height from two to 30 stories, with a maximum height of 364 feet. Parking would be provided in up to four levels of subterranean parking and in above-grade parking podiums.
