Tech Cluster Emerges at American Steel
OAKLAND - A longtime industrial center and former artists' colony in West Oakland is being reimagined as a bustling hub for tech, advanced manufacturing, biotech and clean-energy firms.
The vast American Steel building and nearby industrial sites in Oakland have been reborn with a new mission as a cradle for an array of cutting-edge companies.
A marketing team consisting of JLL commercial real estate brokers Kristi Childers, Eddie Shuai and Charlie Sweeney is scouting for tenants for numerous spaces in the complex, which totals about 440,000 square feet.
"This project is creating new energy in West Oakland," said Childers, who is an executive vice president with JLL. "It's creating jobs in the city. This center is helping emerging companies grow in Oakland."
