The project would reshape a vacant 5.5-acre plot of waterfront land with a Research and Development building rather than the existing entitled plans for a Marriott Inn hotel. JLL is responsible for the property’s marketing.

HOK is responsible for the design.

Parcel F is the fourth and final tower to rise in phase one of the 28-acre Mission Rock masterplan.
A pre-application has been filed for a 26-story residential tower at 1974 Shattuck Avenue.
