By Astrid Casimire, Bay City News Foundation

EAST PALO ALTO, CA — The East Palo Alto City Council will review preliminary plans Tuesday for an office development at a 17.8-acre site located at 1990 Bay Road.

Harvest Properties, Inc., an Oakland-based real estate developer, submitted a preliminary application for the 1990 Bay Road "The Landing" Project, a plan to develop four parcels of land between Bay Road and Weeks Street.

The project proposes four office buildings of 918,000 square feet of space for research and development, laboratories and retail. It also includes seven acres of open space such as a public plaza and dog park.

Harvest Properties filed a preliminary application for the project in February 2020 and held two community meetings in January and February of 2021. East Palo Alto's Planning Commission then held a study session on the project on Feb. 22.

On Tuesday, the City Council will review the plan and provide feedback to the applicant and city staff.

The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom. People can join the meeting at https://zoom.us/j/91361861915 or by phone at 1 (669) 900-6833. The Webinar ID is 913 6186 1915.
