EMERYVILLE, CA-Emeryville’s San Pablo Avenue has lured two regional developers to begin building the largest of six approved projects here along San Pablo Avenue, the main corridor leading to the City of Oakland. Castle Group and San Francisco-based SNK Development Inc. will add more than 100,000-sf of new office space, approximately 300 new homes and 50,000-sf of retail to the already bustling office and residential corridor.
