325 Fremont

On the lot, there is a tombstone with a April 19, 2016 groundbreaking date engraved into it.

Anyone know when actual construction will start?

As I said before, the building permit process is two steps. First is the so-called "site permit", which is pretty general, then there are the "addenda", which get into the detail. The site permit was filed 5/4/16 and approved 3/14/17. As of now, all the addenda are on hold.

This weekend the crane (the last of two) was removed. The block between Polk & Van Ness Avenue on Hayes Street was closed for two days to accommodate the portable crane. This view is from the 24th floor of the (Essex) Fox Plaza

On the Block 5 cam, I see a tower crane off in the distance (somewhere around SFMOMA) that appears not to have been there a few days ago. Anyone can confirm or not? Moscone expansion?

Looks like Moscone Expansion to me.

Exclusive: Will San Francisco's Armory trade bondage for posh Soho House social club?
By Katie Burke – Food/Hospitality/Retail Reporter, San Francisco Business Times
Nov 13, 2017, 12:11pm PST Updated a day ago

Sources familiar with the deal have confirmed that Soho House will take over the 200,000-square-foot building at 1800 Mission St. . . . .

The Moorish castle-inspired building is zoned for urban mixed-use, which is a perfect fit for Soho House's typical potpourri of restaurants, workspaces, spas and bedrooms. If approved, San Francisco would be Soho's eighth North American outpost.

Big difference in skyline for SF 2016 vs. 2017. Can't wait for Oceanwide Center to be done too!

Here's a tidbit that got overlooked.

75 Howard, which had its site permit approved on Sept 28, 2016, finally coughed up the money to have that permit issued on Oct 25 of this year.

Of course, they still need to file for a bunch of other permits before construction can start.

The Powell & California condo project has begun. 44 units at 875 California. The parking lot is currently being torn up. This is a California St. postcard altering project.

It's not, but they're still working around the clock:

The temporary overhead pedestrian safety protection will remain in place on the south side of Stevenson for the next week.

Oceanwide’s contractors will continue installation of the perimeter shoring wall on the First Street site immediately east of 1 Ecker. This work requires large steel beams to be delivered to the site for the next several weeks. The San Francisco Municipal Transit Agency (SFMTA) requires that all oversized deliveries occur between midnight and 5:00 am so the beams will be delivered during these hours. Every effort will be made to minimize the impacts to all neighbors during this time.

During the installation of the shoring wall, drilled pile work will continue to be performed 24 hours a day as we complete the installation of the deep foundations on the Mission Street site and transition over to the First Street site in the coming month.

You can keep tabs on the site yourself via the construction cam: https://app.oxblue.com/open/malcolmdrilling/oceanwide

They are not yet actually digging the foundation. They are pouring the caisons (pilings) which process will likely take at least a year. This requires drilling out a hole to bedrock, putting in place a rebar cage and filing the hole with concrete--and they are probably doing several hundreds of these.

I'm guessing they start digging the hole in the Spring.
