In a major pivot, developer Jay Paul Company has decided to convert a large portion of the ongoing CityView Plaza project from office to residential. The site, at the northeast corner of Almaden Boulevard and Park Avenue in Downtown San Jose, will transform an existing four-office building campus into 320 units, rebooting construction on the project which paused last year due to poor market conditions.
The original project was approved by the San Jose City Council in June of 2020, and the use shift has not made any changes to the number or size of the planned buildings. Beyond the to-be-converted offices, the project will also include a 27-story high-rise residential tower, not yet completed, with a further 360 residential units. The CityView location is not entirely forgoing commercial spaces, the current 15-story 204,000 square foot office building at 150 Almaden is slated for renovations and the greater site will also include 35,000 square feet of future retail space.
