The 27,000-square-foot addition to the ER will also broaden Kaiser services throughout the campus that includes medical offices and a pharmacy.

 There are four major apartment complexes planned with more than 800 combined units  along Yosemite Avenue either adjacent to, across the street from, or within a half mile of the Kaiser campus.

They include:

*260 units dubbed Yosemite Family Apartments on 9.6 acres on West Yosemite Avenue across from Kaiser Hospital. They are planned for 9.26 acres sandwiched between a business park on the southwest corner of Winters Drive  and Yosemite Avenue and the Masa Latina restaurant.

*62-units envisioned west of Kaiser Hospital on the northwest corner of Fishback Road and Yosemite that was approved in mid-2023.

*420 units in the Prose project planned for the western extension of Center Street. Part of the apartment complex will front Yosemite Avenue immediately east of Yosemite Avenue.

*a proposed complex west of Airport Way at 2210 West Yosemite that will include retail commercial along Yosemite with apartments behind it.

The Airport Way/Yosemite Avenue is starting to emerge as a high density residential/mixed commercial use special planning area as denoted in the recently adopted general plan.

The goal is to have a high concentration of residents that can support to walkable commercial destinations such as small neighborhood markets, haor care services, restaurants and such.

At the same time, there would be enough of a population basis to serve the Airport/Yosemite area with robust public transit.

Also within a half a mile to the northwest of Kaiser, there are 114 duplexes and two homes under construction.

They are being built on the northeast corner of Airport Way where it intersects with the alignment of Center Street.

Center Street will eventually be punched through from a point west of Trevino Avenue to Airport Way once the Prose Apartments and property to the north of Kaiser is developed.

The city has approved 24 units at 380 North Airport Way known as the Waterfall Apartments between the halfplex project and the recently completed Yosemite Greens neighborhood that abuts the western edge of the golf course.
