536 Hawthorn Avenue townhome condominium proposal

Sunnyvale

A tight pie-shaped lot near the East Channel would go from two duplex units to three modern townhome-style condos. Commissioners mostly liked the design but pressed on parking clarity, a redwood tree, and whether 10 units per acre is too few for an R-3 zone.
