Is it possible to move 350 Bush (thread link below) out of cancelled projects (and back into proposed)? The developer has had the tower redesigned, enlisted SF's premier brokerage (CAC) to market the building as of 3 months ago, and has increased the redesigned building's awareness around the web, marketing it on sites like 42 Floors.

The vast untended lot stretching from Pine Street over to Bush Street has been left idle for years now, with proposals for a Heller-Manus designed office tower having fallen through, thwarted by the recession. Now that the city's economy is booming again, new renderings for the 19-story tower at 350 Bush have surfaced on the CAC group's website, and the building's design seems to want to cater to younger workers, most of whom aren't enthused by the idea of cubicles, fluorescent lighting or white walls. Interior renderings show open concept office spaces with modern design features and plenty of light. The exterior of the proposed tower is also a departure from the more traditional design originally proposed for the site, with all-glass cladding and little detailing or stonework. Thankfully, the historic Mining Exchange Building on Bush Street will be retained and renovated as part of the project. Though there's no word on any exact timeline for completion, rather optimistic projections of a 2015/2016 delivery are floating around the web.

etc etc etc...who knows if it will actually be built, but the current development cycle in SF is very hot with lots of office towers going up, so at a minimum this proposal has been resurrected and is alive and kicking, not totally cancelled and dead.

Thanks,
