Technology and Innovations in Development Enhance Sacramento’s Value Proposition

đź•’ 2 min read

Sacramento has followed a consistent trend of economic, social, and political growth for the last few years. As new opportunities arise, businesses create non-government jobs while Sacramento’s population grows every year. To keep up with the increased demand, High Density Residential (HDR) urban housing projects are cropping up throughout Sacramento’s CORE.

19J Addresses Sacramento’s Housing Needs

Nikky Mohanah’s Micro Unit HDR project at 19 & J Street in Midtown Sacramento is scheduled for completion this year and will serve workforce and millennial renters who prefer renting over buying. HDR projects like 19J are working to fill a housing void that has needed attention for a long time as the supply of affordable urban housing has diminished.  19J offers micro units consisting of less than 400 square feet for around $1,000 a month.  19J also is introducing stackable parking, designed byHRG Architects,and administered by City Lift.

Just as the real estate market adjusts with projects like 19J, transportation options including alternative fuel vehicles, ride sharing services (JUMP Bikes, Uber and Lyft)  have become the norm.    Innovations in housing and transportation are essential to Sacramento’s future.  All these innovations improve quality of life, reduce waste and cut transportation costs.

Envoy Technologies, a provider of shared on-demand, community-based electric vehicles, has become associated with Sacramento’s housing market through new partnerships encouraging the use of electric vehicles. Envoy also offers a “envoy car sharing” program that pairs well with the proposed housing projects in Sacramento. In this program they offer both charging stations and on demand electric vehicles as amenities for properties. By Increasing the value of rental units and clearing the air, envoy seems to be on the right track. 

Multiple industries are responding to changes in Sacramento’s economy and demographics throughout the City’s COREand developers will build more HDR projects like 19J as transportation options continue to expand. For more information on Sacramento’s growth, please click here.
