This feasibility study for the Episcopal Church of Berkeley showed how the existing student housing facility could be increased from 14 beds to as many as 72 beds. This alternative shown preserves the original historic building fronting on Bancroft Avenue and adds a new building component at the rear and side.  The new addition features a commercial rental space with the housing component above.  Mock/Wallace developed these design studies to comply with the proposed Berkeley South Side Plan. 

 

2253 Union Street, San Francisco:  Lifting the existing building and expanding above and below while maintaining the existing appearance of the building was our clients goal.  Parking and offices are located at the lower levels and two residential units are located above.  Mock/Wallace worked with the Union Street Merchants Association and City Planning to obtain approvals.
