Redevelopment of the property, which is located directly across the bay from San Francisco, call for the development of approximately 1.3 million sf of commercial space, up to 599 residential units, neighborhood parks, a waterfront public promenade and a school site.

In a lawsuit filed last year, Renewed Hope Housing Advocates and Arc Ecology charged that the city had failed to meet the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act by using an inaccurate base line date for studying the project's impacts. The groups claimed the city selected random dates to suit its purposes in depicting impacts relating to housing, traffic and law enforcement.

According to state law, 15% of all residential units have to be designated affordable housing. As part of the agreement reached in the Alameda County Superior Court, 25% of all residential units will be affordable housing.
