Dublin Developments - Part 1
December 29, 2007
Every year I participate in the City of Dublin’s Real Estate Tour. It is a great way for me to keep abreast of all the planned commercial and residential changes occurring within the Tri-Valley, and specifically, the dynamic City of Dublin. This year, the tour covered a broad range of exciting developments, from a westside creation to dreams for many new communities out east. I am going to focus on two major developments under construction in this post, and I will feature other planned projects in future posts.
One new development is creating a space for itself in the western Dublin hills. Schaefer Ranch, a Discovery Homes community, is currently under construction, and has already seen an approximate one-mile extension of Dublin Boulevard to the west. Discovery Homes is proposing the following neighborhood elements:
- 284 single family residential units
- 18 estate lots
- 5.3 acre commercial parcel (this may change to approx. 100 smaller homes)
- Day-care site
- 10 acre neighborhood park - Schaefer Ranch Park will total 10.6 acres. Construction begins in 2009-10 by Discovery Homes and completes in 2010-11.
The second exciting project is Grafton Station, a 318,000 sq.ft. 
retail project located on Dublin Blvd., east of Brannigan. The project will be developed in phases. A portion of the first phase includes the recently completed and now open Lowe’s Home Improvement store. Bathrooms are available inside the store as well. I will continue to update you on additional Grafton Station developments and proposed occupants once more information is released.

Got something to say?
What a great idea! If your first few articles are a taste of what is to come, I look forward to checking back often. I also enjoyed your more personal approach on the stories (ice skating) and the specific updates in our area. Nice work Adam.
