STUNNING Office Building Transforming into San Francisco Hotel Destination

An historic former newspaper headquarters might become San Francisco's next hotel. The Hearst Building at 3rd and Market, designed in part by world-renowned architect Julia Morgan, has its origins dating back to the Gold Rush era and was the former home of the San Francisco Examiner. Despite its prime location, the office building, like so many office buildings in the area recently, has struggled with high vacancy, but Bespoke Hospitality is working on completely repurposing it into a brand new hotel. And the city seems supportive, offering the developer a rebate on some of its taxes over the next 20 years. The project has gone through most most of the permitting process and construction needs to start soon if it wants to keep state historic preservation funds that have been allocated to the project. I think this is going to be an awesome addition to downtown, especially as tourism and conventions make their way back to San Francisco. Definitely a way better use than a vacant office building. Let me know what you think of the project in the comments and follow me for more San Francisco real estate.
