“One of the most significant components of the plan is the transit infrastructure with multi-modal strategies that complement and build off each other, including the new ferry terminal, bus rapid transit, the last mile connection to BART with shuttle service every 15 minutes in peak periods, plus bike and car sharing,” said Stephanie Hill, vice-president of development of Trammell Crow Residential’s Northern California division and a member of Alameda Point Partners. “The new ferry service is a game changer. It is right at Alameda Point’s front door and provides direct service to downtown San Francisco in 20 minutes. This is a great amenity for residents and businesses of Alameda Point and will cut down on the number of cars on the road.”
Alameda Point Partners is scheduled to move forward with the transfer of approximately 20 acres from the city in the spring of 2020 for the project’s second phase. The timing of the third phase, which is slated to include a hotel and additional commercial space, will be a function of the Navy’s completion of its remediation activities before the remaining portion of Site A is turned over to Alameda Point Partners, Hill said.

The concept design architect is DLR Group|Kwan Henmi and the executive architect is KTGY Architecture + Planning.
On Block 11, Trammell Crow Residential, in a venture with Cypress Equity Investments, will be developing a 220-unit market-rate multifamily community named Alexan Pan Am. It is slated to begin in late 2019, and will also include 15,000 square feet of retail and commercial space. The project is located across the street from the waterfront park on Seaplane Lagoon and close to the new ferry terminal. BAR Architects is the project’s designer.
