Sacramento's Railyards is building momentum. New housing may have to wait until 2028

Even though a hospital, concert venue and soccer stadium are coming to Sacramento’s Railyards, the district may not see new residential construction for several years. There are two apartment complexes there now — Wong Center and The A.J. Apartments — but one of the district’s lead developers said recently that he believes the Railyards and other parts of Sacramento’s core may not see home building speed up again until around 2028. “We’re just not in a place where rents and the market are supportive of new development,” said Denton Kelley, CEO of LDK Ventures, the master developer of the Railyards district. “...It will probably take until about ’28 before we start seeing new residential projects in the Railyards and, probably, within midtown and downtown.” The suburbs have seen more solid job growth, especially along the Highway 50 corridor where Folsom and Rancho Cordova are located. Kelley said cited recent investments in those areas by firms like Solidigm and Micron . That area will probably outperform the rest of the market for the next three to five years, Kelley said. The Railyards will compete with those cities’ “lifestyle centers” like the Palladio shopping center in Folsom or the Fountains in Roseville.

‘The most interesting economy in the region': How Rancho Cordova became a ‘hot town'

When Rancho Cordova approved an indoor soccer arena and surrounding development in a $185 million deal last week, the city of nearly 90,000 people east of Sacramento was burnishing a reputation as one of the region’s "hot” cities for businesses. “It’s where all the new stuff’s going,” said Greater Sacramento Economic Council President and CEO Barry Broome. The city, he said, has “made itself the most interesting economy in the region.” Rancho Cordova is growing faster than most other cities in California. City leaders said they have prioritized attracting investment and helping businesses navigate bureaucratic hurdles, with relatively affordable housing also supporting those efforts. The number of jobs in Rancho Cordova has grown to 74,000, up 10% since the city incorporated in 2003. An agreement with chip giant Nvidia is expected to bring school curricula and job training focused on the company’s technology. Three years ago, Solidigm, a memory storage company spun out of Intel, chose Rancho Cordova for its global headquarters. The company has invested more than $100 million in its local facilities in recent years and employs about 700 people in the region. But just as Rancho Cordova is attracting new investments, not long ago the community suffered

Assemblymember Josh Hoover, R-Folsom, on Tuesday conceded to his Democratic challenger Amy Slavensky in the race for a Sacramento County statehouse seat. Hoover had declined to concede Friday after Slavensky declared victory for the 7th Assembly District. His concession came after Sacramento County released its latest vote totals. Slavensky had 53.2% of the vote as of Tuesday afternoon. “I just called my opponent to congratulate her on her victory,” Hoover said on X. “While there are still many ballots left to count, our team no longer sees a viable path to closing the gap like we did when we flipped this seat in 2022.” Hoover said it has been the “honor of a lifetime” to serve the area in district — which includes Folsom, Fair Oaks and Rancho Cordova — in the Assembly. The seat was one Democrats were eager to wrestle back. Slavensky will be part of what is expected to be a widening Democratic supermajority in the Legislature. She has worked 40 years in California public schools as a teacher, principal and superintendent, according to her campaign website. She said her campaign knocked on over 16,700 doors, engaged 400 volunteers and sent 150,000 texts. “I thank the hundreds
