Construction and design

SF Curbed describes the building, designed by Cesar Pelli, as a "circa-2002, 31-story minimalist tower wrapped in black steel."[1] The 31-story building is located at 560 Mission Street.[2] Pelli took visual inspiration from the Hallidie Building.[3]

Says SF Gate, the plaza at 560 Mission Street as "outdoor slip of manicured heaven: terraces of grass, groves of bamboo, potted maples in between. Plus plenty of tables and a circular metal sculpture turning gently above a thin sheet of water," saying it has " only bamboo, Japanese maple and grass growing, along with a granite-lined pool and granite and stainless-steel sculpture."[4]

Plaza

The building's public space has been noted in the press, called one of the "best privately owned open places" in the city by Curbed.[5]

Parklet at foot of building

The Privately Owned Public Open Space at the foot of the tower consists of a parklet containing a water feature with seating, a bamboo grove and the kinetic sculpture Annular Eclipse by George Rickey.

Landscape design for the parklet was done by Christian Lemon at the firm Hart Howerton.[6]
