Plans have been revealed for the potential 26-story residential infill proposal at 896 Folsom Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The illustrations provide a glimpse of a non-descript facade for the pencil tower rising from the minuscule 4,000-square-foot parcel. FORMA Development Design & Management is the project developer and architect.
Construction work is progressing for the two affordable housing projects rising on Transbay Block 2 in East Cut, San Francisco. The update comes just five months after the groundbreaking for both projects, led by separate developers. Concrete is already rising for the senior housing complex, with the foundation already dug for the family housing. Once complete, the site will provide 335 new homes.
In honor of New York YIMBY’s Turkey Week tradition of spotlighting stalled projects, we’d like to highlight the one big project that comes to mind for San Francisco. Oceanwide Center was meant to produce the second-tallest skyscraper in the city, with a unique geometric structure designed by Foster + Partners. Today, the property at First and Mission remains an unfinished hole in the ground, collecting dust and water.
A new residential project has been proposed for development at 54 4th Street in South of Market, San Francisco. The project proposal includes the conversion of residential hotel rooms into tourist hotel rooms. Mercury Engineering Group (MEG) is responsible for the designs.
Modified permits have been filed for the residential skyscraper at 395 3rd Street in SoMa, San Francisco. The updated plans include a slight floor-count increase, with two fewer units and a significant decrease in inclusionary units, while requesting additional waivers from the State Density Bonus law. Strada Investment Group is the developer.
