My mom owns there. The litigation has been settled and the remediation work completed. The damage was pretty much restricted to the building that faces south (maybe the D building?), but as I said, the remediation work is complete.
The building is very nice — designed from the get-go as condominiums, so the dimensions and finishes are much better than many of the comparable complexes in SF that are converted apartments. It seems to fit a niche for the buyer who wants quality, but doesn’t want to pay the premium to live in a comparable condo or casita closer to town.
Some units have storage rooms inside and/or a garage. Make sure you confirm if either of these extras are included. I don’t know about the storage room, but the garage is worth probably $10-12K if you’re comparing prices on units.
My mom isn’t a “walking distance to the plaza” person. Much more of a “I like being close to Target and Schlotzky’s” person. The Alameda is perfect for her.

Thank you for your information. I am constantly looking at the available condos in SF. These seem a cut above others and have good prices.
There are 6 1BR/1BA condos for sale at The Alameda currently. The smallest one has 645 sq. ft and the HOA fees for it are $221/month.
The largest units have between 1171 - 1275 sq.ft. and their HOA fees are $441/month.
In between are units with between 875 - 1050 sq.ft. have HOA fees of $331/mo.
No short term rentals are allowed, so while many people are renting these condos, it doesn't have a lot of transient traffic (which some condo developments, like The Reserve, have).
As jakabedy said, the units have quality finishes and, for a development that looks and feels like a hotel, it is quite nice. You have to want to live in the middle of a large commercial/retail area off very busy Cerrillos Road - and those are the prime reasons these units are so well priced.
