New renderings have been released along with CUA approval for 1525 Pine Street, an eight-story residential proposal with adaptive reuse of the historic Grubstake facade in Nob Hill, San Francisco. The project was approved in July. An appeal was filed last week by neighbors, though it is widely expected to fail. San Francisco-based Pine Street Development is responsible for the project.
The 83-foot tall structure will yield 21,230 square feet, with 17,300 square feet for residential use, 2,470 square feet for commercial use, and 720 square feet for a rooftop terrace. 1525 Pine Street is poised to create 21 rental units, of which two will be affordable thanks to the state density bonus. Unit sizes will average 582 square feet, spanning 15 studios, three two-bedrooms, and three three-bedroom units. Parking will be included for 32 bicycles.
Kerman Morris Architects will be responsible for the design. Facade material will consist of colorful cement panels and plaster. The Grubstake’s facade will be rehabilitated, retaining the existing sign and windows while recreating the yellow door.
The appeal was filed through the Law Offices of David Cincotta. According to SocketSite, a significant amount of opposition comes, ironically, from the immediate neighbor, The Austin, a newly-built twelve-story apartment building.
The building is located a block away from Van Ness Avenue, where the SFMTA is working on a new Bus Rapid Transit line. Residents will benefit from living between Van Ness Avenue and Polk Street, two major thoroughfares with relatively dense retail and housing.
City records show the lot sold in 2017 for $2 million. Construction is expected to cost $7.5 million over an 18-month period.
