SAN FRANCISCO | 33 Tehama | 380 FT | 35 Floors
Looks like we have another proposal, or an upgrade to an already existing proposal. Not much known I suppose, but its a fairly significant tidbit.

Frankly, I think this is a little premature for a thread. It IS a proposal but barely since it does not meet the proposed height limit that the Planning Department seems to be pretty serious about and I feel fairly sure it will be cut down to size. For that reason I posted this article in the SF Compilation section early this morning. But we'll see.

Likely or not, I'd sure like to see SOM's renderings for this. They have been on a serious roll lately. Please let it go public!

If this is under the radar to be shortened, I wonder if we might never see the 550' foot proposal like we might never see the 600' to 1200' one for 50 First Street by Piano. It's too bad we cannot somehow trade 41 Tehama with 350 Mission. At least the heights would be more suitable with their swapped locations. I am afraid that both towers will end up being much shorter than originally proposed along with eight other San Francisco towers proposed above 650'. Having 41 Tehama at 550' might destroy the bowl concept between the Transbay and Rincon Hill mounds. Personally, I don't think that is such a bad thing, but Planning has already worked very hard to develop and maintain this bowl concept. Downscaling the heights of all other towers proposed above 650' to help keep everything relative to the tallest Transbay Tower not shading Justine Herman Plaza, doesn't help 41 Tehama's chances of being much taller than 350' either.

Since this is only a block away from me, I thought I'd get some shots of the site from the ground.
It's long and thin: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3296/...ae943a40_b.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3073/...2dae3fbd_b.jpg This little building, which looks like a tiny repair shop, is the only permanent structure on the site: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3248/...aafd6969_b.jpg Looking west down Tehama: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3204/...0e58a43f_b.jpg |
when this, 48 tehama, and foundry square 3 all get built, this block of tehama will be very different.
they probably wont be able to do shows at 58 tehama anymore, which is too bad cause its a pretty cool little spot. |

Updates...
What is the current plan for this site?
|
So what's happening with 41 Tehama?
|
Some new info from www.rinconhillsf.org via www.livesoma.com:

Here's a rendering of the base:

Hmmm, interesting...very mysterious. Thanks for the update.
|
Is anyone attending this? I'm really curious to see what they're proposing.

a year with no updates, but I stumbled across this on the site today:
http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8483/8...b96e0309_b.jpg part of that stretch of Tehama is downright charming. this is looking east (41 would be in the distance on the right): http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8059/8...b9f64cef_b.jpg and from a little further back, approx from 2nd (I have nothing to do with the shoes): http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8070/8...7d99441c_b.jpg I can imagine Tehama being a really pleasant place to walk with a few alley treatments, especially once Oscar Park is in place. at the far end is the back of Foundry Square III. (that is, what you see in the pic is FS II, but at the end of Tehama itself, on the left side but not really visible in the pic, is FS III) |
so it's down to 342 feet and 31 floors. a shame, but maybe making it more likely to be built.

|
not much new info, but socketsite had a blurb today
|
Really too bad about the downsizing. Just under 300 units is good, but would have been better to get some more out of that site.
|
Seems to include a fair amount of open space at ground level. Hopefully, we'll see more complete renderings soon.
