A 13-story condo tower called Yamanee is being proposed for 25th and J streets in midtown Sacramento.

On Monday, April 11, ECOS will begin looking at the Yamanee Project at our Land Use Committee Meeting.

The ECOS Land Use committee will begin evaluating a 178-foot tower at 25th and J called Yamanee, which would be the tallest residential building in midtown. William Burg with Preservation Sacramento will give a presentation. The proponents of the project have been invited to present, as well.
