SOUTH SHATTUCKFRAGILITY IN THE FACE OF DEVELOPMENTLucie Charles I Sophie Maguire I Chris Neil I Molly Schmidt I Olivia Walker [IN]CITY 2013
The Edge: Dwight and Shattuck
Conceptualizing Contrast along Shattuck Avenue
Shattuck Avenue has always been a major artery into Downtown Berkeley. Recent plans to revitalize the Berkeley area do not encompass Shattuck south of Dwight creating, a north/south contrast along the Shattuck corridor. This area is characterized by multiple vacancies that open new opportunities for devel-opment. Current South Shattuck residents, businesses and landowners lack a cohesive voice in the area.

the urban analytique was an intensive exercise in planning research methods, which integrated traditional site research with field observation, data gathering, and graphic representation. through the combination of site visits, data analysis, document review, and geospatial analysis the group investigated the physical, social, institutional, and economic context of particular areas in the city of berkeley.
the project was truly collaborative in nature, with all members taking part in the investigation, research, content, design, and presentation portions of the project.

Median Housing Unit Value Types of Owners
ResidentsNeed for affordable housing in the area calls for advocacy. Many residents are new to the area and do not have a vested interest in the neighborhood; the transient nature of housing may affect the neighborhoods ability to find a cohesive voice.
Haakon ThallaugOwner of Viking Trader Furniture
Weve been here for 25 years...I didnt know about that residential development [on Dwight]...any new devel-opment would be gladly welcomed...A few businesses in the area tried to start a sort of business association a few years back, but it didnt really work out...owners are more concerned about their independence...
Graduate StudentLiving on Dwight at Shattuck
Enough market value housing! We need affordable housing for students...Im not afraid to have low income housing in the neighborhood...[it] would create more of a community.
LillianWomens Shelter Resident
Developers have fantasies of peoples salaries in the neighborhood...[they] will just push out low income residents... HUDs budget should be going towardsaffordable housing...
LiliOwner of salon
I dont think anything is going to change... Nothing has changed since 1968.
Tenants Rights Organization on landowner Reza Valiyee
Reza Valiyee is one of Berkeleys largest landlords...he owns 23 properties in the City of Berkeley...Valiyee, who has been cited numerous times for failing to meet housing code, has been a significant drain on the citys resources for many years... Valiyee has a long history of stalling on city-mandated repair.
Business OwnersApathy towards establishing a united voice may result in businesses being picked off one by one by developers. - DBA
LandownersLack of interest in community development allows for developers to have more agency over the nature of proposed development.

Without participation the needs of the South Shattuck community may not be acknowledged by new development. Unified participation, in the form of a business coalition or a cohesive housing advocacy
organization, could result in more control over the future of the community.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2701 Shattuck Avenue is a proposed mixed-use development at the corner of Shattuck Avenue and Derby Street in Berkeley, CA. The site is roughly 12,000 square feet and located at the southern end of the Shattuck Avenue commercial corridor. The site is zoned C-SA, for South Area Commercial. The last use of the site was an automobile dealership. The site is fairly flat and is currently a paved parking lot with a small, non-descript single story building.
The developer proposes to create a new, dynamic, mixed-use project on this site with 70 residential units (65 studio apartments and 5 one bedroom apartments) above a street-level commercial podium structure with 42 parking spaces and a 4,500 square foot restaurant.
The project is designed to create a safe and lively urban experience at this corner and in the larger South Shattuck Avenue area. The street level restaurant is a large and attractive space designed to accommodate a noteworthy restaurateur. The unusually wide sidewalk along Shattuck will be improved to create a long-desired high-end sidewalk dining experience in Berkeley and help to make this corner location a Berkeley landmark.
After meetings with the Design Review Committee, City Planning Staff, and local neighbors, the developer and designers made extensive changes to the design of the project to better reflect the scale of the residential neighborhood to the east of the property. This most recent design eliminates the mezzanine and lowers the podium level by 6 feet so that the east side podium wall can be lowered from 18 feet to 12 feet, the maximum height of the building on the east side can be lowered by 6 feet, and a 5th level can be added to the Shattuck (west) side of the building. The new 5th level has seven residential units which subsequently increased in height by 5 feet along Shattuck Avenue. By adding the 5th floor units on the Shattuck side we are able to subtract six units from the east side, allowing us the ability to step the massing back at every residential level on that side. This significantly reduces the massing on the side of the building facing the adjacent residential neighborhood.
As has been the case from the first iteration of this project, the modular-residential units that sit atop the commercial podium do so in completely separate masses, none of which has a footprint larger than 4,000 square feet. These masses are separated by 5 feet for circulation between the buildings and on the east side there are two large open space areas of 14-6 wide giving even further relief to the massing of the building facing the residential neighborhood.
A core component of our design is the creation of outdoor spaces which foster social interaction and are easy to for our residents to access and use in the course of their busy lives. To that end, all of our open spaces are integrated into our vertical and horizontal circulation systems. The open space system has three components. (i) A 1,800 square foot courtyard at the residential podium level, where residents can both circulate and con-gregate. (ii) Exterior vertical and horizontal circulation systems which provide access to the residential units above the podium and create a series of nooks where residents can interact (ii) and fifth level gathering spaces. The multilevel open spaces provide urban sanctuaries for residents and, on the fifth floor, add a level of privacy along the paths of circulation.
Other features include a 240 square foot bike locker storage room and an 800 square foot community room. The entire project will be designed and built to the US Green Building Councils LEED Silver standards or equivalent and reflect a commitment to energy saving green design construction and systems.

The Bay Area has long been fueled by tremendous levels of growth of its diverse population. By 2040, an additional 2.1 million people will call the region home. Providing housing options that are affordable and equitable to all residents will be central to envisioning a sustainable future. This report highlights the diversity of housing issues across the Bay Area through four case studies, chosen by the Association of Bay Area Governments, assessing existing local equitable housing conditions and policy with an eye towards accomodating future growth.Bay Area Housing in Context

For this client project the group assessed the existing conditions and need for fair and affordable housing in four bay area cities. using regional plans, city general plans, and interviews with community representatives, we identified the main factors influencing fair and affordable housing in each city. we then visualized these factors by designing and creating maps that grouped together related factors, revealing the intricacies of housing challenges. our findings helped the association of bay area governments (abag) decide how funds affecting housing issues would be allocated within the bay area.
the following boards were presented to abag as a culmination of the project.

The primary challenge in Napa County is that wages and rent do not match up. If people that work here could live here, that would definitely improve the quality of life.
All of your other locations are job hubs, Vallejo is not a job hub. People are not commuting into Vallejo, they are commuting out.
The main communities we serve are immigrant communities and then dealing with cases of disability based discrimination. For disability-based discrimination we usually deal with fighting for reasonable accomodations for these individuals.
In total numbers, seniors with disabilities are most often found in western neighborhoods and in the lowest income census tracts in the Tenderloin, SOMA, Western Addition, and Chinatown.
-San Francisco Analysis of Impediments
Mountain View, representative of a medium city with a strong market, has a growing population with a high percentage of employment in the information and tech fields. The primary housing equity issues revolve around the dominant tech industry in the area and the resulting income gap.
Napa, on the rural end of the spectrum, is characterized by its tourist and viticulture markets; however, affordable housing is limited for those working in the tourism sector. Resulting fair housing issues include overcrowding, a high dissimilarity index for the Hispanic/Latino communities, and denials based on familial status.
The Western Addition of San Francisco has a dense population with relatively low-income households, as well as a large number of senior and disabled residents. The area is one of the main beneficiaries of public assistance for affordable housing. The rising costs of construction hinder building maintenance, in addition to the necessary rehabilitation of deteriorating stock.
Vallejo, a medium city, is one of the most diverse communities of the Bay Area. It was one of hardest-hit cities during the recession, and the largest California city to declare bankruptcy in 2008. Impediments to increased affordable housing reflect its previous economic downturn and concentrations of racially segregated areas of poverty.
City-Identified Impediments
HUD requires applicants for the Sustainable Communities Grant to produce an Analysis of Impediments (AI), including:1. Review of a State or Entitlement jurisdictions laws, regulations, and administrative policies, procedures, and practices2. How existing law affects the location, availability, and accessibility of housing3. An evaluation of conditions, both public and private, affecting fair housing choice for all protected classes4. An assessment of the availability of affordable, accessible housing in a range of unit sizes.Urban

Vulnerable Populations
Median rents are low due to the high amount of assisted housing in the Western Addition, yet rent costs still do not fall within the HUD definition of affordability for residents.
Elderly and disabled people face barriers to adequate and affordable housing. The minority residents experience difficulty securing home loans. Vulnerable and minority populations are concentrated in the lower income areas.

This area is highlighted by two medical centers, which are the primary sources of employment. Accessibility to transportation and the downtown area makes the area a desirable location, despite low academic performance and high crime rates.

"The main communities we serve I would say are immigrant communities and then dealing with cases of disability based discrimination. For disability-based discrimination we usually deal with fighting for reasonable accommodations for these individuals."
"Housing market levels have gone up significantly for everyone and especially in Mountain View. Landlords are taking advantage of this gap in the market through predatory habitability meaning that landlords take advantage of people they know don't have the ability to fight back."
"Mountain View is a higher income area than the other areas we serve. We serve the very low and moderately low income residents in the area. The median income in Mountain View is around $101,000; so, we serve those who make below 50% of that."

Similar to the rest of the Bay Area, rent is high in Mountain View. Affordable housing is concentrated in areas of low income. Dense populations with higher income create the income gap that has begun to characterize the Mountain View community.
Mountain View is a culturally diverse community. Despite this diversity, the area still has concentrated racial populations. Low English proiciency is also a barrier to accessing housing rights.
Major tech industries define the job market in Mountain View. Though these high income jobs skew the housing market, leaving vulnerable populations in the area such as disabled and elderly residents to face major barriers inding suitable housing.

Lucie Charles | Sophie Maguire | Olivia Walker | Madalyn Vaughn | Ward Wolff [IN]CITY 2013
People working in other areas and living in Vallejo has created a huge problem with economic disparity in Vallejo because it's not indigenous. We desperately need an industry here.
"One of the impediments to providing more affordable housing is the community is very against it, over the years it has gotten a bad name. There is a lot of room for education."
"There is a decent amount of affordable housing in Vallejo, but there is always a need for more. We have a pretty big homeless population... Ive worked in other areas, but the strong opinion against affordable housing from the community here is the most Ive seen."

Planned and prospective residential developments are located on the periphery of high income and rent areas. This trend reflects the NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) sentiment. It is difficult to find support for high and medium density residential developments because of strict zoning ordinances.
Vallejos affordable housing is concentrated in areas inhabited by the African American, Hispanic, and Asian communities. These areas are located near bus lines connecting residents to jobs outside of Vallejo. Residents are employed outside of Vallejo due to a lack of industry.
Home Loan DenialVallejos well-performing schools correspond to areas of higher home value. These are also areas where minorities experience a significantly larger amount of home loan denials relative to their white neighbors, proving that higher income areas have a NIMBY mindset.

It really just depends what your population is that determines what kind of discrimination you face. With our county being agricultural, we have a lot of undocumented immigrants because of the nature of the industries that are provided. That is why we deal mainly with national origin and familial status complaints.
Napa is a service-oriented place, so we have a lot of people that work in hospitality. They make decent money, but not enough to live in a place like Napa. People should be able to live near where they work, its that simple.
The primary challenge in Napa County is that wages and rent do not match up. If people that work here could live here, that would definitely improve the quality of life.

English Proficiency Loan Inequality
Dissimilarity & AH
Concentrations of low income residents and available affordable housing are located in the downtown area. These residents are most likely to be traveling outside of the downtown area to their jobs in the agricultural or service industries. Areas of higher median income and rent are more prevalent the farther one travels from downtown.
Napa is characterized by its fairly large Hispanic and Latino communities. These communities are geographically concentrated in the downtown area where the majority of affordable housing exists. The downtown area is served by an efficient bus system connecting Napa to neighboring cities.
A high percentage of Hispanic residents do not have English proficiency. Because of the language barrier, awareness of fair housing rights is low. However, even when aware of fair housing rights, residents fear issuing complaints due to limited rental affordable housing. Similarly, it is more difficult for minority residents to obtain home ownership loans, perhaps due to various degrees ofdiscrimination.

Median income is skewed because of high income jobs in the tech industryHousing policies do not reflect the needs of the population
,,
Promoting education of fair-housing rights to Hispanic communities and facilitating an inclusive mindset change within the majority populations regarding the need for affordable housing
1. Areas of low English proficiency are not aware of their fair housing rights.2. Agricultural and tourist industry work-ers can not afford housing in the area.3. Community does not want affordable housing in their community.
Making changes at the policy level to improve access to fair and affordable housing for vulnerable populations and low income residents, and assisting minority groups to access their housing rights and navigate loan application procedures
There is a need for multi-family housingAffordable housing has to be built in the City of Napa not Napa CountyEconomic reliance on low-income workers
A diverse community with diverse needsPotential for upgrade of existing housing stockPervasive NIMBY-ismAwareness
Revitalization
Access
IntegrationRevitalizing existing structures to match the needs of disabled residents and supporting community organizations in their efforts to increase outreach and empower vulnerable and low income communities
Improving housing stock, bolstering the downtown economy, and acknowledging the need for high and medium density development
1. High degree of gentrification impacting housing affordability2. Inability of disabled residents to find suitable housing due to historical housing stock and building code violations 3. High concentration of blighted housing relative to rest of city1. Immigrant reliance on cash economy prevents eligibility for loans and grants2. Tech industry influence on the housing market3. Racial concentrations inability to access housing rights and procedures4. Poor access to accomodations for disabled population1. Current zoning ordinances that inhibit high and medium density developments2. No unique economic industry in Vallejo3. No inclusionary housing ordinances

Gaps OpportunitiesConsiderations
Each of the four case studies provide a framework for looking at diverse housing issues in the Bay Area, highlighting local examples of gaps in housing equity that are representative of the entire region. Our analysis of these gaps has offered a lens specific to each case study, through which opportunities for future development may be examined. History of displacement due to urban renewal plansCurrent high concentrations of affordable housing create divides within the area
