Bayshore Commons: 256 homes replacing Amphlett office park

San Mateo

Summary

A 14.5-acre 1970s office park becomes a for-sale neighborhood of townhomes and single-family homes with 38 moderate-income units, a central park, dog parks, and new street improvements. Speakers split over Grant Street driveway access; commissioners praised the Amphlett redesign but noted lower-than-allowed density and highway-adjacent air quality concerns.
