Apartment sizes will vary with 55 studios, 147 one-bedrooms, and 59 two-bedrooms. Full build-out would yield a combined 447,430 square feet across the site, including 380,680 square feet within the 89-foot-tall multifamily complex and 66,750 square feet across four multi-plex structures. Residential amenities will include a fitness center, co-working space, and bicycle parking. The fourth-floor podium deck will feature a courtyard deck with a pool and attached lounge.<\/p>\n<p>The developer invokes Senate Bill 330 and the State Density Bonus law to increase residential capacity and streamline the approval process. The project includes 43 affordable housing units for low-income households. This allows the project to apply for zoning waivers and concessions. <a href=\"https:\/\/sfyimby.com\/category\/bde-architecture\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BDE Architecture<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/sfyimby.com\/category\/sdg-architects\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SDG Architects<\/a> are jointly responsible for the design.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46279\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/3350-West-Bayshore-Road-illustration-by-BDE-Architecture.jpg\" alt=\"3350 West Bayshore Road, illustration by BDE Architecture\" width=\"1500\" height=\"873\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">3350 West Bayshore Road, illustration by BDE Architecture<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46277\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/3350-West-Bayshore-Road-site-plan-illustration-via-plan-set.jpg\" alt=\"3350 West Bayshore Road site plan, illustration via plan set\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1142\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">3350 West Bayshore Road site plan, illustration via plan set<\/p>\n<p>Strada purchased the property from Alexandria Real Estate Equities last December for $29 million.
