Plans for a new tower have been revealed for Downtown Oakland. Ellis Partners has submitted a preliminary application to review plans for a 375-foot office building at 1919 Webster Street, located in the urban center of Oakland. If built, the proposal would replace an existing surface parking lot and a vacant six-story building.
The 33rd tallest skyscraper in the Bay Area planned or built is 77 Beale Street, a 492-foot tall office building serving as the headquarters for the Pacific Gas & Electric Corporation in SoMa, San Francisco. Construction on the building started in the late 1960s and finished with its opening in 1971. Hertzka and Knowles are responsible for the architecture and design.
