I walked by on August 5, 2020 and took this photo - The old buildings on the site have been gutted with only the walls on Market Street to be retained with a new structure behind.

I took this photo on July 7, 2020 of the rig that is being used to prepare the foundation. The building in construction in the background is 30 Otis Street. The brick building on the left will be remodeled.

View from Colton & Colusa Streets of the foundation work.
The high rise on the left is the former California automobile office tower which was stripped of it's concrete skin & remodeled into an apartment building. The white building on the right was built by Bank of America, since sold. There was to be a twin tower next to it but the B of A did not like the taxes the city put on it's business & moved it's operations to the east bay. There was a heliport atop the building but neighbors complained about the noise when the tests were done. The bank was going to have daily flights to bring document and such to the site. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...20f74389_h.jpg1601-1637 Market Development |

01/10/2021 - Some hefty steel beams! Great progress since my last post 10 days ago. A reminder that the Civic Center Hotel will be updated when a new building is complete in the complex. This will be the new Plumbers Union Hall & offices.

https://sfyimby.com/wp-content/uploa...Architects.jpg Last week, permits were filed to bring cranes onsite for the construction of the five-building development. As well, updated renderings compared with previous posts are included. |
flurry of updates here today!

I am almost sad that we won’t be able to see the poorly redone “C” in Civic when this is complete.

^^In the renderings it looks like this building, for which the steel is now going up, incorporates the Plumbers' Union Hall but in the photos I can't see evidence of that yet. Could you tell if anything's happening with the Union Hall?

To my eye it looks like all one building. But they could build it in 2 sections I guess.
https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/ng/ser...158989/enhance Or now that I stare at it awhile, I think I get it. The Union Hall is actually vacating the ground under their current building and shifting a bit eastward making space for the "B" Building. |
Union Hall - Looking at the new steel frame the building is separated into 4 sections which matches the artist rendering of the new union hall. The new union hall is being built in what was for many years a parking lot. I will be glad to see that horribly ugly gray marble clad building demolished.
