Shipways is a waterfront development that repurposes a former historic shipbuilding and repair site into multifamily housing with open space and waterfront access.
The development includes a variety of amenities such as water recreation through public kayak rental and launch, fishing, multi-purpose open space, childrens’ play area, and Bay Trail access.
Agency approval for this project was complex due to many overlapping agency interests; such as the Bay Conservation and Development Commission, United States Army Corp of Engineers, the City of Alameda, and adjacent landowners.
