SAN LEANDRO, CA Bay Area hotel developer The Amin Group has purchased a roughly two-acre site some six miles south of Oakland International Airport from fellow local developer Stan Boersma, with the intention of constructing a 120-room Hilton Garden Inn on the parcel. Jeffrey Roe of Insignia/ESG Hotel Partners represented the seller in the transaction.
Originally part of an undivided site of approximately 5.5 acres, the plot was subdivided into two parcels, with this smaller portion designated for hotel development and the balance approved for an Allsafe Self-Storage facility. A noteworthy aspect of the deal was that the seller owner of the land for more than 12 years reportedly had to preserve an important historic Victorian home situated on the site in order to complete the parcel split.
