Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community
The Village was in the early planning stages back in January 2018 as noted here. The public parking lot was turned into the subsidized housing project that now towers over the south side of the Avenew and Howard Ave. The question I have when I see the sign below is why advertising is needed to fill the building? If the "housing crisis" is so bad, wouldn't there be a long waiting list to get in? As units turn over, the next name is called. And yet, yesterday this sign pops up again.
I see so many realtor placards for single family homes in Burlingame littering the sidewalk & they are an eyesore.
There are evidently too many single family homes and not enough apartment buildings.
Bad assessment. Interest rates have been above 6% since September of 2022. Insurance rates are up big. Cost of materials to do improvements are also through the roof. Pun intended. Single family homes are the backbone of the peninsula regardless of what Scott Weinie says. The slow down is Powell’s fault and is temporary.
