The 10th tallest building in the Bay Area planned or built is 415 20th Street, a proposed office tower in Downtown Oakland. If constructed, the 622-foot tall skyscraper will rise to be the tallest building in California outside of San Francisco and Los Angeles. Hines is responsible for the 622-foot proposal.
California has published the draft Environmental Impact Report for 1125 Arguello Street, a mixed-use office and housing project in Redwood City, San Mateo County. The plan calls to replace several low-rise commercial structures and asphalt with hundreds of thousands of square feet of office space, a few dozen units of affordable housing, and a childcare facility. Hines is responsible for the development.
Salesforce West, a 600-foot office tower in SoMa, San Francisco, is tied as the 13th tallest skyscraper in the Bay Area planned or built. Located at 50 Fremont Center, the building rises to the same height as 101 California Street and the proposed height of 53 3rd Street. Originally developed by Fremont Properties, the structure has been branded as Salesforce West since the software company acquired the property in 2015 for $637.6 million.
101 California Street is tied with two other buildings as the 13th tallest skyscraper in the Bay Area planned or built. The 600-foot office building was complete in the Financial District in 1982 as the third tallest building in the San Francisco skyline. Its round and glassy exterior with a geometric atrium base is an iconic design by the influential architects, Philip Johnson and John Burgee. Hines and the Singaporean Sovereign Wealth Fund are joint property owners.
New plans have been filed for what could become one of the tallest towers in the Bay Area. Hines has submitted the preliminary project application for a quarter-billion-dollar residential skyscraper to rise 818 feet high at 50 Main Street in SoMa, San Francisco. 50 Main Street will be part of the 200 Mission Street Campus, Hines’ mixed-use redevelopment of the former PG&E Headquarters into housing, retail, modernized offices, and a network of public open space.
