the boom times are back. >> reporter: sal ventura is talk about the biggest building boom the region has seen in 12 years. besides the 49ers project, over 6 million square feet of new office space is under construction or planned between san francisco and san jose, besides reviving jobs in the building trades which had been on life support it's more work than 2800 local electricians can handle. >> in terms of jobs it means going from a 30% unemployment to full employment and having extra help coming from around the country to help us with our projects in santa clara county. >> reporter: the growth is led by high-tech companies like google which is expanding in mountain view and other software makers. many smaller companies have moved into existing office space in san francisco, palo alto and downtown san jose where crowds of workers fill the sidewalks at noon leading to speculators coming back into the market putting up multibuilding campuses that don't have tenants yet. >> very exciting. there's jobs available every, single day. nobody has to worry about not working. >> reporter: joanna and barbara cox both endured months of

little or no work during the recession. they will now help rebuild the valley and their own bank accounts. >> construction is cyclical and that cycle is on the way up and that's a really, really good thing because it was pretty brutal. >> reporter: all good boom times must end but in silicon valley that won't be for a while thanks to major construction projects just getting under way like the san jose earthquake soccer stadium. it should ensure that the economy and jobs will be alive and kicking here well into the year 2016. in san jose, len ramirez, kpix 5. >> a new report says some 6 million square feet of new office space is planned in silicon valley and san francisco. those figures certainly help explain that ripple effect in rising rent prices around the bay area including places you might not expect. kpix 5's john ramos reports. >> reporter: built in 1926, the parkview apartment building in oakland had amazing views of downtown and lake merritt and the detail inside harkens back

to a bygone era, as well. but the rent being charged for these one bedroom. flats is a modern-day phenomenon. >> 1450 and now it rents for $1,700. >> reporter: angie who works for the building's property manager says $1,700 for a one- bedroom apartment is becoming all too common in oakland these days. and a check of the online real estate tracker zillow confirms it. oakland rents are going through the roof. >> it's really tough if you are looking for a place. we have basically zero turnover time, zero vacancy. we have our pick of applications. it's great for landlords but for a tenant it can be stressful and i know the city is really stressful but i think oakland is also pretty competitive at this time. >> i'm paying three times for my rent in oakland that i was paying when i lived in arcadia up the coast. it's sticker shock. >> reporter: the demand is coming from young professionals moving over from san francisco to get more space and enjoy oakland's growing restaurant

and club scene. but that's driving up rents everywhere as rochelle brown found when she looked into relocating from west oakland. >> for what i pay now, it will cost me about $500 more a month than what i currently pay. and so i figure maybe i should just stay where i am, otherwise identify have to move out of the area altogether -- i'd have to every move out of the area altogether. >> reporter: rent control restricts increases to 3% per year as long as renters stay put. once someone moves out the landlord can charge full market value and apartments built after 1983 are exempt from the ordinance altogether. things are hot now. but david woolridge says if crime gets worse it may discourage people from moving here. >> because of that, it's going to bring the rent prices down to attract them because that's just some -- >> reporter: are you finding a silver lining to crime here now? >> it's unfortunate, yeah, but -- [ laughter ] >> yeah, pretty much. >> reporter: those who rent these apartments say there's no sign that's happening now as the crazy bay area housing

why the students were scared and for that matter, the parents too. >> i was so scared when they call me say that happened. oh, my god, what happened. >> i'm hearing it was less than 10 miles per hour but it was a good jolt for anyone on the bus, that's for sure. >> reporter: it was unexpected. the witness didn't expect to feel emotionally connected to perfect strangers. >> i saw the little girl, she was already inside the paramedic van, and she was screaming for her mom and dad.

gets closer, i don't know if we are going to make it. i felt him look behind me through the harness. >> if you see the video, he's looking, then i look. so he probably heard the car actually come up on the sidewalk and then the pop. and i heard the pop. so i think that's mainly what happened. >> reporter: supervisor todd then pushed danielle around the nearby corner with the 18-month- old yellow lab not missing a step. >> thank god the corner was close enough because i did not know if i was just going to have to squeeze along the building line and hope the car would miss us but the corner happened to be there so we were lucky enough to round it. if you see the video i think you see my foot just leaving around the corner when the car is passing by. >> new jersey i knewas soon as i knew we were safe, i sat on the ground. and i just loved him up a little bit. owe just came right into my lap
