Align Real Estate Files Plans for 766K SF Mixed-Use Redevelopment at Outer Richmond Safeway

Align Real Estate files formal plans for a 766,000-square-foot mixed-use redevelopment at the Outer Richmond Safeway site in San Francisco.

By Colin Percy · May 27, 2026

Align Real Estate has transitioned its redevelopment of the Outer Richmond Safeway site from a conceptual phase to a formal application with the San Francisco Planning Department. The revised proposal outlines a 766,000-square-foot mixed-use project that significantly scales up the site's previous iteration.

Key updates to the plan include a 60 percent increase in the total number of affordable housing units provided, alongside an expanded retail footprint. The development is part of a broader six-property strategy by Align Real Estate to convert grocery-anchored sites into residential mixed-use projects throughout the Bay Area.
