Document Description
The project site is located in the City Environs land use zone, located immediately west of UC Berkeley’s Campus Park, in the City of Berkeley, Alameda County. The project site is composed of six parcels, including University Hall, the University parking lot immediately west of University Hall, and two UC-owned commercial buildings located at 2136–2140 University Avenue (Ernest A. Heron Building) and 2154–2160 University Avenue (Martha E. Sell Building), which are City-designated landmarks. UC Berkeley would redevelop the project site with two laboratory buildings, referred to as the South Building and the North Building. The South Building and the North Building would include offices, and other collaborative meeting spaces, and would house researchers, faculty, and students from multiple disciplines. The approval is for the site preparation work and the South Building.
