"The next student housing complex Cal is planning to build, atop the former campus of the Anna Head School for Girls in the Southside neighborhood, would rise 26 stories and have more than 1,500 beds."
"The university plans to demolish three of the former private school campus' six buildings to make way for the dorm at Channing Way and Bowditch Street."
"The complex would be made up of two connected towers, Gibson said, the taller one along Channing Way and another of up to 14 stories along Bowditch."
"UC Berkeley's plans call for building a dining facility on the ground floor of the complex."
UC Berkeley is planning a 26-story dormitory at the former Anna Head School for Girls site, which would exceed the height of the current 23-story dorm under construction. The new complex aims to provide over 1,500 beds and will involve demolishing three of the six existing buildings, leading to backlash from preservationists. The project, referred to as Anna Head House, will consist of two connected towers, with a dining facility planned for the ground floor. The university is still finalizing the dorm's size, which may reach a maximum of 2,000 beds.
