Zoning map for the City of Alameda...
The "mandate" to raze the site and replace it 100% with housing is supposed to be driven by zoning, right? Well, there's a pdf map of exactly how the City has zoned all of Alameda and Bay Farm Island at this link: http://alamedaca.gov/sites/default/f...high_res_1.pdf
You can look for yourself. The Alameda Marina is partly zoned M-2 for "General Industrial" and partly zoned M-X for "Mixed Use". There's a special district of some kind which has a "multi-family-housing overlay" on parts of the marina land but not others. Precisely what that special district means or implies, I'm not sure, however a discussion with one of the women at the City planning office indicates that this means that the area may be ALLOWED for certain other uses like R-1, R-2, R-3 (residential) but it is not REQUIRED.
