"Align Real Estate has filed a proposal for a pair of senior housing towers on the site of the Trader Joe's at 5727 College Avenue in Rockridge, which is owned by Safeway parent company Albertson's. The proposed development would include a 31-story tower and a 25-story tower, which do not exist anywhere in this part of Oakland, dominated by two- and three-story buildings."
"The 1.5-acre site would become home to 415 senior-living units under the proposal, consisting of 371 independent-living apartments, 18 assisted-living units, and 26 memory-care rooms. The developer is working with a nonprofit on the project, a leading Bay Area nonprofit senior living organization with more than 65 years of experience serving older adults."
