SAN FRANCISCO | Post Street Tower | 407 FT / 124 M | 38 FLOORS | PRO

A new thread for the fairly recent proposal of the Cathedral Hill Tower. While not part of the Financial - SOMA Central Skyline, it should make for a very nice addition to its part of the city. At 407', it will certainly be visible from many vantage points.





The Skidmore, Owings and Merrill design for a proposed 38-story and 300 unit condominium development across from St. Mary’s Cathedral has been unveiled. The glass-walled oval tower would replace the current Cathedral Hill Plaza Athletic Club swimming pool and tennis courts (the swimming pool would be moved underground; the tennis courts, not so much) and would include five floors of below grade parking (one space per unit).

All 300 units in the tower are proposed to be market rate with the developers looking to fulfill their BMR quota offsite (within a mile). And the development would also include an education/community center at the corner of Gough and Geary and adjoining ground level commercial space.

In terms of a timeline, expect at least a year for planning and permitting (we’d guess quite a bit more) and then another two for actual construction.
