$100 Million Gift Paves Way for Affordable Artist Housing in San Francisco



Gabe Meline
May 10

A new San Francisco development that would provide affordable housing and studio space for artists took its first step toward completion Friday.

Buoyed by a $100 million gift from an anonymous donor, two nonprofits, Artists Hub on Market and Mercy Housing of California, filed plans with the city for 1687 Market St., the current site of the McRoskey Mattress Co. showroom.

The plans call for a 17-story building with 100 affordable apartments for artists, as well as studio space, practice rooms, a community center and a 99-seat black box theater. Though the construction price is not finalized, the gift was “based around the initial estimate” for such a project, according to Randall Kline, the president of Artists Hub on Market.

Extension Request For 130 Townsend Street In SoMa, San Francisco



BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:00 AM ON MAY 14, 2024

An extension request has been filed for the proposed redevelopment of 130 Townsend Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The five-story office project, named Ampersand, was approved in 2021, but developer Presidio Bay Ventures hopes to extend the approval’s expiration date for another three years, still hoping to develop the centrally located parcel.

...

If built, Ampersand would produce two buildings. The first will adaptively reuse the existing two-story brick structure formerly known as the Inglenook Vineyard Agency, according to city records. Renderings for Ampersand show the four-story modern addition wrapped in terracotta louvers by Stanton Architecture rising above the over one-hundred-year-old structure.

The Stanford Building at 50 Stanford Street will replace a surface parking lot. The lower two floors will be established with a faux-historic facade composed of glazed terracotta and metal panels. The top three levels will be clad with metal panels similar to the Townsend Building.

Exclusive: Steph Curry just bought a building in S.F. Here are his plans for it

By Laura Waxmann
San Francisco Chronicle
May 16, 2024

The property, located at 600 20th St. and within walking distance of Chase Center, home of the Warriors, traded hands for $8.5 million — nearly six times higher than what it sold for in 2021. Real estate agency Touchstone Commercial Real Estate Partners brokered the deal, but declined comment.

The property, which has been pitched for redevelopment into a new, five-story mixed-use building, will serve as the new headquarters for Thirty Ink, Curry’s off-court business enterprise. A representative of the company said it plans to vacate its current Howard Street location in the SoMa neighborhood. The number thirty is Curry’s Jersey number.

The company’s office serves Curry’s eight businesses and 13 entities. It focuses on endeavors “spanning across athlete management, brand, fitness, lifestyle, impact, media, philanthropy, and technology with a shared mission to Elevate the Under,” per a statement shared with the Chronicle.

Nice to see a glimpse of “The Portal” tunnel alignment in the schematics. The project was just given $3.4b from the federal government and is expected to start construction in 2025. I imagine this will get built sometime between construction starting and the opening of the new 2 new underground train stations. 130 Townsend sits just 2 blocks from 4th and Townsend and about a mile from the SF Transit Center entrance.

Here are a few progress shots of smaller builds in the Mission.

2100 Mission St (Saitowitz on 17th + Mission / replace the dollar store). The massing looks nice, but I'm a bit worried about how it'll finish out.





811 Valencia (replacing the Phoenix bar) seems to be moving very, very slowly.



The rest of the Mission is pretty quiet at the moment, with at least half a dozen approved projects but without movement or pending demolition.

We'll see how 2024 shakes out, but I have a feeling we're prob not going to see much else prior to 2025, sadly.

Facade Installation Underway For 730 Stanyan Street In Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco



BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:30 AM ON JUNE 3, 2024

Concrete has topped out with facade installation underway for the eight-story affordable housing complex at 730 Stanyan Street in Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco. The white and gray precast panels showcase the design from the influential architecture studio, OMA. Once complete, there will be 160 new permanently affordable apartments, retail, community space, and a childcare facility next to Amoeba Music, Whole Foods, and Golden Gate Park.

...

OMA is working with executive architect Y.A. Studio for the design and landscape architect GLS. A visit to the site shows each panel has rounded edges, with a toy-like sensibility. The overall massing is carved out with setbacks on each side, and a semi-circular plaza along Stanyan Street is intended to frame a five-story tree.

The 0.9-acre parcel extends along Stanyan Street from Haight Street to Waller Street. Future residents will be located on the western end of Haight Street, Golden Gate Park, and next to a Whole Foods grocery store and three blocks from Gus’s grocery store.

What's going on at the East Cut site? Seems there's equipment there.

I assume you're talking about Transbay Block 2...

It's an affordable housing project with a total of 335 units.

That's cool, good to see some affordable housing in SF.

I wonder if 200 Main Street at the other end still has a shot.
