A Monster New Development is Coming to SoMa
In this video, Austin Klar presents a detailed update on a proposed redevelopment at 536 Mission Street in San Francisco’s SoMa district. The project, led by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in partnership with Lincoln Property Company and McCourt Partners, includes two design options that would rank among the city’s tallest towers. Option 1 is a 697‑foot mixed‑use tower offering roughly 643,000 sq ft of office space, 521,000 sq ft of residential units (385 apartments) and about 7,000 sq ft of ground‑floor retail, with offices on lower floors and residences above for premium views. Option 2 is a 752‑foot office‑dominant tower providing about 1.3 million sq ft of office space and a similar retail footprint. Klar notes that no firm approval or construction timeline has been set, but estimates a four‑year construction period once ground is broken. He invites viewers to comment on the proposals and follow him for more San Francisco real‑estate insights.
