The San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission is to review refreshed plans for the residential development of 770 Woolsey Street, formerly the University Mound Nursery, in the city’s Portola neighborhood. The proposal is for 62 residential units, some sold as affordable, and retaining two historic structures. L37 Partners is responsible for the construction.
Construction of the thirteen-story mixed-use tower at 1001 Van Ness Street, San Francisco, has topped out as the facade nears completion. We last covered the site in early October, when the concrete structure was just eight stories high, and the first facade panels were installed. Designed by Handel Architects, the building will bring a new center for assisted senior living along the city’s fast-developing Van Ness corridor and the Fillmore District. Related Companies and Atria Senior Living are managing the development through a joint venture.
New planning permits have been filed for two four-story residential structures at 2536 California Street in Pacific Heights, San Francisco. The forty-foot proposal yields 8,057 square feet with four apartments and one unit of ground-floor retail. The project replaces an existing commercial building to add more housing to the high-end neighborhood. Redwood Properties is responsible for the development as the property owner.
Recent permits have provoked confusion concerning the 5.8 acre-parcel at 900 7th Street in Mission Bay, San Francisco. Recology, a San Francisco-based company, is the current property owner and has been since the 1970s. SFYIMBY confirmed with the developers that their proposed 1.2 million square foot mixed-use development, designed by SOM, is very much an active project. We had to verify this because of a recent project review meeting application for a commercial facility on the same land. Recology learned of the contradictory permits because of our correspondence.
Permits have been filed to construct a thirteen-story mixed-use building on 550 O’Farrell Street in the Tenderloin, San Francisco. The project proposal includes demolition of the existing building except for a two-story parking garage. The garage’s existing facade is considered an important historical element of San Francisco’s Uptown Tenderloin district. Brick is managing the architecture and design of the project.
