Handel Architects updated their page... and some of there renderings
his project consists of a 58-story residential tower, a nine-story mid-rise portion with apartments, an amenity level, retail space, and a public glass atrium. The design creates a significant architectural landmark for the transformation of the Transbay Terminal district in San Francisco.
In total the project includes 400 condominium units, 18,900 square feet of amenity space, 8,000 square feet of retail space, and underground parking for 350 cars. At 645 feet, the tower will be the fourth-tallest structure on the city's skyline.
The tower's exterior design creates the impression of a translucent crystal. Delicately detailed and taut in character, the exterior incorporates a variety of glass and metal fins to craft a sense of lightness and transparency. The exterior profile of the tower has been sculpted with chamfered corners and faceted planes creating a perception that the tower's silhouette shifts as the light changes throughout the day.
