Document Description
The Albany Village Graduate Student Housing project would deliver a total of 289 apartment units and 760 beds. The building would have a central area featuring a lobby, social lounge, study room, laundry facility, and covered, secure bicycle storage. The Project would include 164 on-site resident-serving surface parking spaces, resulting in a 0.22 ratio. The Project also includes replacement of existing site uses in two new structures delivered by UC Berkeley on nearby locations. These include a 6,000 gross square feet (gsf) storage and office facility for the Rausser College of Natural Resources (RCNR) and a 4,500 gsf recreation facility to replace the recreation space operated by UC Berkeley Division of Student Affairs. The Project includes a minor amendment to the 2004 University Village Master Plan to remove a portion of the Commercial or Mixed Use land use designation so that the entire site is within the Housing, Parking, Recreation, and Open Space land use designation.
