Three big downtown San Jose projects have gained final city approval in a decision that allows more than 900 homes and hundreds of thousands of square feet of offices to be built.
The City Council has approved the Icon/Echo office and residential towers complex, the Bo Town residential tower and the SuZaCo office and retail project. If any or all are built, the projects are poised to greatly revamp key sections of downtown San Jose.
Upper levels of Orchard Residential tower at 409 S. Second St. in downtown San Jose, concept. The housing highrise is being developed next to the long-time Bo Town restaurant site. Icon/Echo would consist of two towers. The 26-story Echo tower would accommodate 389 residential units and the 20-story Icon office tower would total 525,000 square feet. This project would front on East Santa Clara Street, North Fourth Street and East St. John Street. Urban Catalyst is the developer.
SuZaCo, a mixed-use mixed-use complex at 130 through 150 E. Santa Clara St. and 17 S. Fourth St., would total 75,300 square feet in a four- and six-story office and retail building. The project will partly demolish yet preserve the facade of the historic State Meat Building. Bayview Development is building the complex.
