New Construction Rentals in SOMA SF Proposed

In this solo YouTube commentary, Austin Klar reports on newly released renderings for a proposed two‑tower rental development at 655 4th Street, directly across from San Francisco’s Caltrain Station in the SoMa district. The project, spearheaded by developer Tishman Speyer, will rise to 435 feet and comprise more than 1,100 market‑rate rental units—primarily one‑ and two‑bedroom apartments, with a smaller mix of studios and three‑bedroom units. Architecture is being handled by SCB in partnership with Iwamoto Scott Architects, while Bionic provides landscape design. The towers will deliver over 1 million square feet of residential space, about 9,850 sq ft of street‑level retail, and parking capacity for roughly 290 cars and 414 bicycles. Klar concludes by inviting viewers to follow him for future development updates.
