The Sierra

Located in Oakland’s Jack London neighborhood, the Sierra is a 500,000 

sq ft mixed-use development which includes ground floor retail stores,
227 loft style condominium units, a recreational facility, and three
levels of parking. This six-story building occupies the entire city
block. The open space includes decks at the top floor level with
dramatic elliptical roof openings, which provide panoramic views and
highlight the building’s urban location. The courtyard design blends a
mixture of elements – bright yellow stucco pilasters, steel deck and
railing support, natural wood decking and screen walls, and landscaping.
