Construction and design
According to SF Curbed, the structure is described as a "31-story minimalist tower from around 2002, clad in black steel."[1] Positioned at 560 Mission Street, Pelli’s architectural concept drew inspiration from the historic Hallidie Building.[2]
The outdoor plaza showcases carefully maintained terraces featuring bamboo clusters, Japanese maple trees, grassy areas, and granite-lined reflecting pools enhanced by stainless-steel sculptures, crafting a welcoming environment for both tenants and guests.[3]
Plaza
Recognized by Curbed as one of the city's finest examples of "privately owned open spaces," the building's public area includes a parklet equipped with a water element, seating arrangements, a bamboo grove, and the kinetic artwork Annular Eclipse created by George Rickey.
Christian Lemon of Hart Howerton led the landscape architecture for this space.
