While the real estate market may be a bit slow, construction at The 88 in downtown San Jose is full-steam ahead. With a sales office scheduled to be open in April 2008, the developers have requested from the San Jose Redevelopment Agency to allow construction on the next three Sundays. The additional construction work on Sundays is anticipated to complete the northeast corner of The 88 building in order to have a sales center ready by April.

The 88 is a 22-story, 197-unit high-rise condominium tower with approximately 32,000 square feet of ground level retail. The luxury condo developement in downtown San Jose will feature a pool, spa, state-of-the-art fitness facility, courtyard, and media center. A sales center for The 88 is scheduled to open in April 2008.
