i walked up broadway from the exploratorium yesterday and noticed a public notice indicating that cahill has pulled a permit for street closures for
the broadway/sansome social housing project, with construction apparently to begin this month.
a quick search
indicates that:
This project, located at 255 Broadway Street, has a mat slab and 2 concrete podiums with 1 floor of metal stud framing and 7 floors of wood framing. When complete, the building will contain 75 residential units comprised of studios, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units. The basement and level 1 will contain some common area, retail space, and offices. There will be roof decks at levels 6 and 7 and an exterior courtyard at level 1. Total area is approximately 88,000 SF.
decent, if ugly, infill (two retail spaces on either corner = yes), walking around that area, there are a sinister number of surface parking lots that really make the place seem depressing.
