Three exceptionally large three-bedroom residential flats, averaging roughly 1,746 square feet each, sit above three generously sized ground-floor commercial suites averaging about 1,710 square feet, pairing durable, contractually locked commercial income with meaningful residential upside in one of the city's most central, dynamic locations.

The building also anchors a premier innovation district, surrounded by the offices of leading AI research labs, including OpenAI and Anthropic, plus Salesforce and Google all sustaining the high-wage employment that drives demand across San Francisco.
