Modular residential apartment project shaping up quickly on El Cerrito skyline

Construction is proceeding rapidly at a long-awaited transit-oriented-development next to the El Cerrito Del Norte BART station.

Work on the first phase of the Mayfair project, named for the grocery chain that once occupied the block, started Oct. 28 with the installation of the first modular units. Ten days later the assembly of modular units had reached its full height of six stories.
