1301 Shoreway (Office/R&D/Life Sciences)
Project Status
Project Description
The 6.9-acre project site is in Belmont, east of US Highway 101 and located at 1301 Shoreway Road at the northeast intersection of Shoreway Road and Sem Lane. The site consists of one parcel (Assessor Parcel Number [APN] 040-371-110) and is bounded by Shoreway Road to the west, Sem Lane to the north, the San Francisco Bay Trail and Belmont Creek to the east, and a PG&E electrical substation to the south. Shoreway Road serves as a frontage road for US Highway 101. The project is within the city limits of Belmont in San Mateo County, CA.
The project applicant is proposing a general office and/or research/technology campus with a parking garage for the subject property. The development includes 542,035 square feet (sf) of employment uses (e.g. office space), a 442,690sf parking garage, and landscape. A series of outdoor amenities open to the public are proposed along the rear of the property, accessible from the slough and adjacent trail along Belmont Creek.
The proposed project would include two buildings: Building 1 would be located on the western portion of the project site adjacent to Shoreway Road and Building 2 would be on the northeastern portion of the project site along Sem Lane. Building 1 would be 8 stories and would extend to approximately 128 to the rooftop. Building 2 would be 7 stories and extend to approximately 112 feet to the rooftop. The office buildings would include a mixture of solid and glazed panels on the exterior of the buildings.
Parking for both buildings would be provided through a 9-level parking garage and surface parking for a total of 1,626 spaces. The parking garage would provide 1,432 spaces and the surface lots provide 194 spaces. Due to the building heights proposed, the project requests a Planned Unit Development (PD) zoning designation.
The PD District is designed to accommodate various types of development, such as professional and administrative areas, commercial service centers, industrial parks, and others, to allow flexibility of design, in accordance with the objectives and spirt of the General Plan.
