Some nice, decently sized infill here. Good to see another parking lot go away (and with no replacement parking)!
The specs for 425 Broadway:
- 74 units (7 studios, 45 1BR, 15 2BR, 7 3BR)
- Parking for 0 cars and 85 bicycles

Increased Plans Filed For 425 Broadway In San Francisco

BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:00 AM ON FEBRUARY 16, 2024
Increased plans have been filed for 425 Broadway in San Francisco. The latest proposal would replace the 144-car garage, just three blocks from the Transamerica Pyramid, with 74 homes. The new filing is a substantial increase compared to the previous 41-unit application, and it only raises the project height by one floor. Construction would bring two separate buildings and a pedestrian alleyway to the L-shaped parcel along Broadway and Montgomery Street.
...
Both structures will yield 85,250 square feet, with 77,300 square feet for housing and 7,500 square feet for ground-level retail. Three retail spaces will be added along the narrow pedestrian path extending from Montgomery Street into a sheltered outdoor common area. The pathway, to be named Verdi Alley, will feature landscaping, a green wall, and public seating outside of the future shops.
...
Ian Birchall & Associates is responsible for the design. The overall design style has not changed, with articulation, setbacks, and angular Bay Windows overlooking Verdi Alley. The architecture firm describes the project as “geode-like, the two buildings feature brick tile street facades that give way to reveal a multifaceted inner courtyard.” A rooftop deck will cap the taller structure, providing all residents with access to views across the neighborhood and the Financial District.
