Er, what's happening at 177 Fremont? Demolition will kind of ruin the mini-park next to and behind it.

Sounds to me like they are building something very like Symphony Towers (but shorter--ST is 13 stories).
By the way, did you happen to pass SOMA Grand? Last fall it looked like they were clear a lot across Mission St. Anything doing there?
