Our Oakland Structures Spectacular

The subject of how Oakland's real estate market is changing was top of mind for our massive Oakland Structures special issue which delved into the city's commercial, residential and retail market. It's also the subject of this week's Structures podcast where we explore more deeply some of the issues laid out in the special section. [1:00] First up was a discussion on the possible revitalization of West Oakland, the city's perpetual "neighborhood of the future" where we discuss not only the projects and developers looking to transform the area, but also how their current efforts fit into larger historical trends. [8:00] Then the team moves the focus downtown which is seeing both a boom in commercial and residential activity. Some of the questions explored include emerging trends in office leasing and forecasting how some of the high-rise structures rapidly being constructed could effect the city's central core. [19:30] Finally, the podcast team takes a look at how the changes in Oakland's real estate market maps to social trends in the city and the fight to keep Oakland's unique and diverse identity in the face of economic disruption.

Ep 11: On partial stake sales, Salesforce Tower and modular construction

Ep 11: On partial stake sales, Salesforce Tower and modular construction On this week's issue of the Structures podcast, multimedia producer Kevin Truong and real estate reporters Blanca Torres and Roland Li dive full on into the policy wonk behind partial stake sales, which allow landlords to skirt transfer and property taxes. [1:22] Then the podcast team takes a look at Salesforce Tower and what the tallest building in San Francisco symbolizes for the city and the emerging Transbay neighborhood.

Ep 10: Everything you wanted to know about affordable housing

In this episode of the SFBT Structures Podcast multimedia producer Kevin Truong and real estate reporters Blanca Torres and Roland Li break down some of the questions you’ve always been afraid to ask about affordable housing, draw some distinctions with other programs designed to make housing cheaper and outline some of the deeper social issues which underpin the affordable housing debate. In our New Development segment we review some of the big real estate news during our extended break because of our North Bay fire coverage, including San Francisco’s biggest-ever lease, and what it could mean for biotech’s future in Mission Bay. We also detail the Bay Area’s bid for Amazon’s HQ2 megaproject and what the possible pro and cons would be for the e-commerce giant setting up shop in the region.
