Otherwise, I'm not sure the roof height for Tower One at somewhere less than 850' of crown height makes as much sense, unless the floor counts are wrong. Maybe this is enough speculation at this point. Let's just wait and see. For now I'm anxious to see more renders and info from Foster.

The floor count from that article is pure bullshit. Hruski pointed it out yesterday. Nobody is building a 10' ceiling height office space in downtown SF, because it becomes 9' with floors and would make for a tiny lobby. Transbay is 61 floors to 900', which is about 14.5'. That is the tall end, but not atypical for class A office space. I would guess this 850' building will have about 60-65 floors as well. The office space will be slightly taller, and the residential shorter, so the 50' extra that transbay tower has will be 50' saved on the residential portion of 50 first(making 50 first 850' and 60-65 floors mixed vs 900' TB with 60 floors for pure office).
