The 440-foot 340 Fremont Street is tied with two other towers as the 43rd tallest building in the Bay Area, located on Rincon Hill in SoMa, San Francisco. The project was first proposed in 2005, though delays pushed construction to start in 2014 and open in 2016. Equity Residential is the project developer.
The fifty-first tallest structure in the Bay Area is Infinity 1 at 338 Spear Street, SoMa, San Francisco. The 423-foot tall tower opened in 2008 as one of the distinguishing symbols for the development south of Market Street, especially given its prominent position beside the Bay Bridge. Its undulating dark cyan curtain-wall facade reflects modernist architecture’s evolution in the new millennium, facing pressure to reject traditional ornamentation and the boxed rigidity of the 20th-century modernist design. Tishman Speyer was the developer for the construction and remained as the property owner.
