Re: “Is an Eco-Friendly High-Rise Coming to Downtown Berkeley?”
I live in library gardens literally right next to where this new apartment building is planned. It sounds cool but
I'm concerned about the effect this would have on adjacent rents as well as what effect this would have to Harold way. It's already hard to pass by on Harold way to get to BART and if I have to contend with a parking garage from this new building ill be upset. I just hope that this is a good thing and not a monster property that will cause problems for those of us who Already live in this area. I'm also concerned about the noise construction would cause. If street parking on Harold way is removed and the sidewalk is widened then this might work. It's very expensive to live In downtown berkeley thousands of dollars a month I really hope they will offer
More affordable housing otherwise the housing in Berkeley will become just like Uc Berkeley; only affordable for the very rich.
