New permits have been filed to increase the residential expansion of 960 Howard Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The updated plans use the recently passed Assembly Bill 1287 to achieve a 100% density bonus, creating a 19-story tower rising from an existing office building. oWow, the busy Oakland-based developer, is responsible for the application.
Increased plans have been filed for 425 Broadway in San Francisco. The latest proposal would replace the 144-car garage, just three blocks from the Transamerica Pyramid, with 74 homes. The new filing is a substantial increase compared to the previous 41-unit application, and it only raises the project height by one floor. Construction would bring two separate buildings and a pedestrian alleyway to the L-shaped parcel along Broadway and Montgomery Street.

Details about the tower design and financing have not been published.
