The Galloway @ Owens is a Transit-Oriented-Development comprised of a 5-story garden product and 4-story highDEF product adjacent to the BART station in the City of Pleasanton, California. The project has approximately 250 for-rent apartment units, approximately 5,000 SF of retail space and will be marketed towards the active bay-area professional.
Leasing and resident amenities are located in separate standalone structures and include a fitness center, an outdoor kitchen and lounge, and a formal gathering space with a contemporary water feature. Additional amenities developed for the enhancement of the resident experience include a resort-style swimming pool and spa with cabanas, an open event lawn surrounded by shade trees, BBQ picnic areas, a fruit-tree orchard, and a dog-walking station adjacent to a public-access trail.
A low-maintenance, low-water-use plant palette comprised of native and well-adapted northern California plants was developed to complement the modern aesthetic of the architecture, facilitate in storm-water management, and to save on operation costs.
