Present Land Use
The project site’s zoning designation is “C-DMU Core” (Downtown Mixed-Use), and the City of Berkeley General Plan land use designation is Downtown.
Document Description
The project would demolish all existing structures and redevelop the project site with two laboratory buildings with vehicle parking. The two proposed buildings, referred to as the South Building and the North Building, would include offices, and other collaborative meeting spaces. Researchers, faculty, and students from multiple disciplines would use the spaces. The North Building would also include a parking garage. The project would not result in UC Berkeley student population growth but would result in an increase in employment on the project site.
