Currently 12th St. at Harrison St. is blocked for the construction of the Eagle Plaza. I passed by today on the way to the Rainbow Grocery & Best Buy.

It is odd to see the old house isolated by the new construction.

Timbad - here is the view that I see from my apartment (telephoto) of the construction site that you posted a view of on September 10th. I've been wondering what it is, now I know!

It's nothing you'll point out to visitors, but it achieves decent density without imposing too much on the surrounding neighborhood. It's unobtrusive.

Former A's owner Lew Wolff backs luxury 'hostel on steroids' in Tenderloin
By Katie Burke – Staff Reporter, San Francisco Business Times
Sep 18, 2019, 1:21pm PDT Updated 7 hours ago

With rooms more akin to a cruise ship and amenities rivaling those in an upscale dorm, Found Hotels is ready to convince San Francisco travelers that a luxury hostel isn't a contradiction in terms.

Backed by former Oakland A's owner Lew Wolff and Beverley Hills-based investor Hawkins Way Capital, the new 220-bed hotel — note the measurement in beds, not rooms — is set to open next month in the Tenderloin following years of redevelopment work. Located at 140 Mason St., the property will be just steps away from the Powell Street BART station and will provide a mix of private and shared bunk rooms.

Rates will be per bed rather than traditional hotels' per room. They will start a $49 a night . . . .

Nearly 400 units in SoMa seek go-ahead
By Fiona Kelliher – Staff Reporter, San Francisco Business Times
Sep 18, 2019, 1:30pm PDT Updated 9 hours ago

Nearly 400 housing units could soon hit San Francisco’s SoMa neighborhood.

Trammell Crow Residential is seeking final approvals for its 42-story tower at 95 Hawthorne St., consisting of 392 apartments and about 3,500 square feet of retail space on the ground floor.

The project, which will replace an existing five-story office building on the site, will include 199 one-bedroom units, 144 two-bedroom units and 49 three-bedroom units. About 14 percent — or 55 — of the units will be designated as below-market-rate for residents making up to 50 percent of area median income . . . .

I'm surprised, that a city like SF, doesn't have a much stricter Design Committee, to allow a building like this to be built!

I can understand other cities who are so desperate for any development that they'll approve just about anything so as not scare away the developer.

I'm not sure about 'stricter' but better, more considerate, and clearer guidelines would be outstanding. As with any good set of guidelines, there definitely needs to be some room for interpretation and play — but to me, it's the lack of regulation on materials or super loose concern for context.

San Francisco has a process that involves layer upon layer of bureaucratic obstacles to building anything, starting with a city agency—the Planning Dept.— made up of city employees of varying talents and training, followed by a Planning Commission made up of politically connected appointees and ultimately the elected Board of Supervisors. Any project can be ordered modified or blocked altogether at any of those levels, based on so little as a single citizens complaint or nothing at all. And any project that navigates all the levels can be stopped by a lawsuit, often over failures or deficiencies in the state-mandated environmental review process which comes before all the rest.

To suggest we don’t have enough bureaucracy or that the tripwires any project ust step over or that what we need is more design kibbitzing by non-participants with mediocre tastes is pretty funny. If we took it seriously we could find ourselves unable to build any housing at all.

Not every apartment building or even most needs to be an object or architectural beauty. They just need to provide places for people to live. Most, in most cities, are quite bland. But if we had less rather than more bureaucratic control, we might get a few outstanding projects, at least by some tastes (others would doubtless hate them).

As for this project, it will give some people a place to live. Just build it.

These Central SoMa projects are now ready to roll
By Blanca Torres – Reporter, San Francisco Business Times
Sep 30, 2019, 2:54pm PDT Updated 51 minutes ago

With a handful of lawsuits now out of the way, large development projects in the San Francisco Central SoMa planning area are closer to breaking ground — but some office projects have one more big hurdle to jump.

Central SoMa is a development plan that upzoned roughly 230 acres of mostly low-rise industrial buildings between Second and Sixth streets, from Howard to Townsend streets. The plan allows for office space that could accommodate 32,000 new jobs as well as about 8,800 units of housing . . . .

With the suits settled, purely residential developments such as Tishman Speyer’s 870 apartments at 655 4th St. and 200 apartments for low-income residents at 5th and Howard streets, are free to move forward.

Office projects, on the other hand, need to receive an allocation of space from the city’s office cap known as Prop. M . . . .

Some of the Central SoMa office projects already have allocations in place, such as the the TMG Partners and Alexandria Real Estate Inc.’s 870,000-square-foot 88 Bluxome, Tishman Speyer’s 917,000-square-foot 598 Brannan St. and the first, 1.4 million-square-foot phase of Kilroy Realty Corp.’s Flower Mart redevelopment.

That leaves several projects in limbo including Boston Properties 760,000-square-foot project at 4th and Harrison streets and about 800,000 square feet more at the Flower Mart . . . . the city has a pipeline of about 6 million square feet of office waiting for Prop. M allocations . . . .

On top of that, neighborhood activist group Todco plans to start collecting signatures for a ballot measure that would reduce the annual office cap allocation if the city misses its annual affordable housing targets.

I think you are referring to Jerry's pic from NW of Union Square, looking SE. it's an angle I'm not used to either, but most of the buildings in it, particularly in the foreground, are not particularly new. the newest complete ones are in the distance at far left, in Rincon Hill, built between 2008-2014ish. some of the taller buildings visible in the middle distance, around Yerba Buena, went up in the decade prior to that. of course, you can see the skeleton of 706 Mission rising there, with its own crane, as well. it is the last major piece of the build-up of that area.

man, so 5th and Brannan could see construction on three of its corners in the next couple years (depending how Flower Mart gets phased)? that would be pretty transformational.

SF housing breaking ground on troubled Mid-Market block that housed strip club
J.K. Dineen
Oct. 7, 2019

One of Mid-Market’s most glaring cavities is about to be filled.

Three years after winning approvals to develop 193 rental apartments at 1028 Market St., developers Olympic Residential Group and Tidewater Capital will break ground this week. It’s a long-awaited housing complex that Mid-Market boosters hope will improve a block that has struggled with drug dealing and crime, even as much of the neighborhood has seen a big influx of investment.

Construction crews are set to begin demolition Monday on the two-story 1907 building that has housed a theater, a billiards parlor and a strip club. Most recently it was home to the Hall, a temporary gourmet food market that Tidewater operated from 2015 to 2017 while seeking approvals. The site has been vacant since the Hall closed in October 2017.

Like other market-rate developments in San Francisco, 1028 Market has been slow to get going as rising construction costs have made projects increasingly infeasible. The cost of the $120 million project has escalated 25% since 2017 and nearly doubled since it was proposed in 2014.

While the project may be starting later than hoped, Dan Deibel, founder and principal of Olympic, said the time was spent honing the design. The project site is sandwiched by buildings on busy Market Street and sits atop the BART tube, which presents unusual construction and engineering challenges, he said.

The additional scrutiny also persuaded the development team to eliminate the 44 parking spaces in the original plan. The project will have 124 bike spaces — but no spots for cars. Underground parking spots cost about $60,000 apiece to build . . . .

The building will have 6,000 square feet of retail, including a cafe, as well as a clubroom, fitness center and roof-deck with fire pits and barbecue grills. The development includes 26 below-market-rate units as well as a mix of studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom units . . . .

At last, one of SF's most scabrous blocks may be improved.

New plans for 29-story hotel slated for Market Street
By Katie Burke – Staff Reporter, San Francisco Business Times

A developer's plan to transform a decades-old retail building into a bustling hotel catering to tourists is inching along as momentum for downtown hospitality development continues to pick up speed.

San Francisco-based Frontier Group LLC has filed a formal planning application for a 29-story, 240-room tourist hotel just steps from the Montgomery BART station at 570 Market St. The proposal would include demolishing the existing two-level retail building, now home to Japanese dollar store Daiso, and replacing it with a 300-foot tower with ground-floor retail, public open space and a bar on the 15th floor.

Stanton Architecture, the lead designer, originally drew up blueprints for a 30-story tower with 241 rooms. The initial development cost was estimated to be $75 million. The revised figure was not immediately available.

The revised plans were triggered by the constrained site's need to meet downtown development requirements such as the inclusion of public open space and shadow studies. The updated design shifts the open-air atrium from the third to 14th floor, complete with a dedicated elevator to allow for public access. It will be sheltered by an outdoor bar on the 15th floor . . . .

While a majority of San Francisco's proposed hotel developments have been concentrated on the greater SoMa area, there are a few projects in the works north of Market Street. Stanton is also behind a 155-room proposal at 420 Sutter St., a 77-room AC by Marriott at 425 Mason St. as well as 315 rooms at 439 Washington St. . . . .

. . . about 20 new hospitality developments are in various stages of San Francisco's approval process with about 1,450 rooms under construction and another 3,400 rooms in planning, according to CBRE Hotels.

It seems unreal to have four larger BMR projects going on all at once in this part of the Mission.

^^Nice. Socketsite hadn't yet posted that when I looked.

The redo is a big improvement of the streetwall facade IMHO but I'm still no fan of the tower (too Holiday Inn-ish for SF's "grand boulevard").

Study for Mid-Market Infill Tower About to Get Underway
October 8, 2019

The required Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed infill 27-story tower to rise on Nordstrom’s underdeveloped parking lot parcel at 469 Stevenson Street is about to be drafted by Planning.

. . . the tower’s proposed height has been reduced to 284 feet (but) its proposed density has been increased to include around 460 units, of which 358 units would be one-bedrooms and the remainder a mix of twos, threes and eight fives.

At the same time, the number of parking spaces in the development’s underground garage has since been reduced from 234 to 171 and the project’s two ground floor commercial spaces, which are slated to front Jessie, have been reduced to total 4,000 square feet.

And assuming the project is approved as proposed, which includes a requested density bonus as the parking lot parcel is principally zoned for 160 feet in height, the project team is now anticipated to break ground sometime next year and be completed with the development by late 2023.

Burger King at Van Ness & Eddy has lost its parking garage/drive-through to the project at 830 Eddy:

The project:


https://www.bararch.com/system/uploads/project_image/image/2183/830_Eddy.jpg

. . . this 137-unit apartment building includes three townhouse units adjacent to the pedestrian lobby facing Eddy Street. The building will feature a car elevator, and provide 82 car parking spaces and 137 bicycle parking spaces. A large roof deck offers panoramic views of the city lights and beyond.

This 13-story high-rise tower is designed to exhibit a verticality that belies its proportions. The Eddy Street façade consists of a GFRG frame with a vertical orientation. The infill walls and windows are deployed in a rhythmic manner to contrast the rigor of the frames. An “off white” palette reflects the color and texture of early 20th century apartment buildings in the city.

The Willow Street façade includes residential stoops and Juliet balconies that give this narrow alley a pedestrian scale. The Willow façade consists of two volumes: the lower volume holds the street edge, and there is a setback above the fifth story to allow additional sunlight to reach the street.

Does anyone feel the heights of the downtown buildings look too uniform from the route 80 side? Really hope another couple of taller buildings like saleforce tower added into the view.

Many of us have felt this and not liked the table top look for years; it's actually better now than it was. Are you looking at the other specific project San Francisco threads? Oceanwide Center will be 910', also puncturing the skyline.

Assuming they erect the third tower crane and complete the final foundation pour this weekend as they have announced, I think it's safe to say nobody currently anticipates any holds or delays. Renting those cranes is expensive and not the kind of thing you do just to let them sit there.

Judging from photos in the building thread, we should also soon see the shorter Mission St. tower rise above street level--looks like they are working on the utilities and rebar for the ground floor now--and once that happens it will, as with other buildings like 706 Mission and 181 Fremont, seem to shoot up (compared to the slow below ground progress).

I'm guessing you are referring to the set of photos posted by gillynova. I personally don't mind it that much. In fact, it's one of my favorite views of the SF skyline (Bay Bridge approach or Treasure Island side is my top) because once you get around the bend of Hospital Curve, it's like BAM! You get hit with the view of a massive continuous wall of skyscrapers. Although you've got the table top effect (which is improving as viewguysf mentioned), the skyline looks extra dense from that angle.

[homebucket]

^ here's an older picture I took from Potrero Hill. Pretty similar angle to the one you get from 101 North.

I actually totally forgot about the 5M Development! I took some pics of from the Intercontinental Hotel back in mid-August. I will post those up this weekend

homebucket, can you take another picture from Potero Hill like you've done before? It's a good angle for the skyline and I want to see how the Mexican Museum fills in from that area

I imagine there are quite a few maps and renderings of the East Cut, but nothing capturing the few dozen proposed and under construction projects.

I've posted this quite a few times over the years and I don't even remember now where I grabbed it but it's supposedly the Planning Department's vision for our skyline as published somewhere a decade or more ago now:

In the shot just above your post the Mexican Museum (706 Mission) would be right in front of the white hotel that's right in front of the Bank of America building (it's changed names so many times I don't know the current one). So I don't think it'll add much to the skyline since there will be at least one taller building (BofA) right behind it.

and that base may now be the crane seen in Jerry's photo from the 706 Mission thread: actually, I'm not so sure that's right, looks a bit too far east

Jerry’s crane is the one on the former Macy’s Men’s Store. The building has been radically dismantled, much more than I thought it would be. The crane base for the hotel at 72 Ellis is still sitting there today, just as you showed it in post 9928.

How big a hill is Rincon "Hill"? How tall? Never noticed much of a hill there, compared to Telegraph Hill, Nob Hill etc. Maybe I was drunk or not paying attention.

[Pedestrian]

^^It's been empty and derelict for years. Until recently it still had a sign on it indicating it was a Hillary for President 2016 campaign HQ (an obviously temporary use). And as a derelict, surrounded by a chain link fence, it has been a contributor to the tragedy that the BRT project has made of Van Ness Ave.

I am out of town now for the winter but just before I left I walked by there, as always hoping to see a demo permit or some indication it was imminent (almost as much as I once hoped to see such a permit on the old McDonald's)--didn't see anything even just a week ago, but now here we are. I hope construction quickly follows.

As usual, on the Nextdoor site (https://nextdoor.com/news_feed/?post=126789725), the usual suspects are calling the replacement structure "too tall" and "out of character" in spite of the similarly sized new hospital a short distance away. Example: "A 14 story building, it will be horribly out of place on Van Ness and create more wind tunnels, block views, and not be a benefit to the area." Blah, blah, blah.

[Pedestrian]

How big a hill is Rincon "Hill"? How tall? Never noticed much of a hill there, compared to Telegraph Hill, Nob Hill etc. Maybe I was drunk or not paying attention.

About 100 ft I believe--so it ads that much to the perceived height of buildings near its summit.

Another SF Planning Dept principle has long been to place the tallest buildings near the top of hills and other natural terrain features so as to emplasize the city's hilliness rathe than diminish it. This is why Russian Hill and Cathedral Hill also have taller buildings at their summits than on their slopes. And, of course, One Rincon Hill, that hill's tallest, is closest to its top.

PS: Wait until you are 70-something and then walk up First St. to the top of Rincon--then you'll notice it.

[bossabreezes]

Oceanwide has apparently suspended construction. This is a big blow to SF, hopefully it can be restarted soon.

[alpallord]

"Work will continue on the taller of the two buildings, a 1.2 million-square-foot office tower with 109 condos. That building, fronting First Street, is slated to reach 910 feet and would be the second tallest in San Francisco after Salesforce Tower." from SF business times.

[craigs]

Oceanwide has apparently suspended construction. This is a big blow to SF, hopefully it can be restarted soon.
Your post here is overblown and melodramatic. Do you really consider the reality of the situation a "big blow to SF" given the taller, signature tower remains under construction while the shorter one, which IIRC was supposed to go up second anyway, is on hold until the 910-footer rises?

I don't.

[Pedestrian]

Lengthy and better-informed discussion of this on building thread. We should keep it all there but from what is known craigs is correct—the change is a revised plan for construction as much or more than a suspension.

That looks incredible.

Would really love to see the Downtown Skyline spread more into SOMA. I think the potential for supertalls is there, as it seems that SOMA is the current direction where high density development is going.

SF def has one of the prettiest skylines in the US, hope to see it get even nicer as the years pass.

The current tower to the right of the Salesforce tower will complete the "pretty" label for me. It completes the skyline city developers had in mind for San Francisco.

To add to the SOMA sentiments, I agree. I hope the wavy look of the skyline extends to the south of the Bay Bridge. Something for us East Bay dwellers, an epic wall to gawk at. It won't be an oppressive wall though. The wavy image will impose an impressive wall of scrapers, without it being oppressive or overwhelming.

I was looking at this week's Planning Commission agenda.

Those of you worried about Prop M office space allocations will be interested that they're shaking the tree and revoking several prior allocations:

1100 Van Ness 52,000 square feet
100 California 76,500
300 California 56,459
350 Rhode Island 87,700

To add to the SOMA sentiments, I agree. I hope the wavy look of the skyline extends to the south of the Bay Bridge.

The best hope for this comes from 2 sources: The Giants' Mission Rock project, the tallest building of which is about 250 ft (23 floors) and the Central Soma towers at 4th & Townsend which are 400 ft. Those are both south of the Bay Bridge but I can't think of any other high rises that are.

It was known as the Beast on Bryant and was fought alongside the Monster on Mission (16th and Mission project). It looks good; I hope people's original thoughts on the project are scaled back or toned down based on finished product.

that is another stretch of Folsom that could potentially get quite livened up if all of the cluster of proposed projects there actually get going. and it may work to link up Moscone Folsom with Transbay/Rincon/East Cut Folsom

Interesting design. I like it. Looks like stacked factory built modules. Factory built modules could reduce costs. Less on site work needed. Anything to make housing more affordable.

Are there no skyscrapers being built in San Francisco? No new proposals.

There are two already at different stages: Oceanwide Center First Street tower (under construction) and parcel F (waiting for approval), both of which are over 800 ft. But other than that it's mainly highrises right now. I don't see anything else much taller than 500ft going up any time soon, at least not in this cycle

^ Which is straight up amazing, considering our housing shortage and the still crushing demand for office space. Speaks to how high the costs are here . . .

You need to define "skyscraper" more precisely. There are quite a number of proposals and under-construction projects that fit the SSP definition of 120 ft or taller. Many are in the district called "the Hub" near the intersection of Market & Van Ness:

Another center of activity in the Central SOMA area (projects seen here in yellow):

And currently under construction downtown are Oceanwide Center (905 ft) and 706 Mission (510 ft).

Beyond all that, though, SF has height limits that, going forward, make places to build new projects over 450 ft or so very scarce.
