Emerald Views

This slender tower will rise 42 stories above Oakland's Lake Merritt and contain 370 residential units and five levels of below-grade parking.  Emerald Views will provide in-fill development within a high-rise area near services, jobs, and transit, and by designing a relatively small footprint, will allow the creation of significant on-site open space serving as an elegant connection to Snow Park.  The project will offer a café and a skyway on top of the building where the public can have a 360 degree view of Oakland, the Bay, and Lake Merritt.  The building is designed to achieve a LEED Gold rating.
