135 New Apartments: Construction Set To Begin In Walnut Creek

WALNUT CREEK, CA — Construction is set to begin on a major housing and retail development in Walnut Creek.

The new apartment community, named Anton NoMa, is close to desired jobs, award-winning restaurants, a wide mix of shopping – and two blocks from a BART station.

Anton NoMa will be located at 1910 North Main Street and becomes the latest project in the city’s North Main/Ygnacio Valley Road Specific Plan. It will feature 135 apartments and 10,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space, following the city’s plan for more neighborhood mixed-use projects. It will also include two levels of on-site subterranean parking.

The community will offer studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments, of which 11 units are reserved for low-income residents. Rental rates will be available closer to the scheduled opening in fall 2021.

“It’s an excellent location and project for our company, the community – and future residents,” said Steve Eggert, Founder of Anton DevCo. “We’re committed to making Anton NoMa a model of what can be done with urban infill development and showcase the mixed-use vision for the neighborhood.”

Anton DevCo is a leading apartment community developer-owner with 25 years of experience in multifamily housing. It already has over a dozen communities in the Bay Area and another four in various stages of construction and development, including 91 units in Oakland, 144 units in Mountain View, and 583 units in Milpitas.

Anton NoMa’s proximity to BART features a short 35-minute ride to San Francisco and 25 minutes to the Oakland City Center. The current Walnut Creek BART station is being transformed into a BART Transit Village, featuring 27,000 square feet of retail space and serving as the centerpiece of the North Main/Ygnacio Valley Road neighborhood.

“An apartment community has to meet so many needs, including easy access, especially in the Bay Area,” said Brandon Dinon, Director of Development for Anton DevCo. “Anton NoMa is designed to make the most of the location, whether you are commuting to San Francisco or Silicon Valley, or just walking down the street to downtown Walnut Creek.”

Anton NoMa amenities will include a community room with a kitchen, luxury fitness center looking out to a manicured courtyard with a pool, spa, barbecue area and firepit. A rooftop lounge will offer views spanning the Diablo Hills.

“An excellent location in the East Bay is just part of the equation,” Dinon said. “Anton NoMa will also offer residents a comfortable, easy place to live and enjoy home.”

Anton DevCo has developed 60 apartment communities – including more than 40 affordable communities – in the Bay Area, the Sacramento region and Southern California.

“We’re expanding our lineup of communities,” Eggert said. “Our apartment communities are helping meet the huge need for more affordable housing.”
