I think so. The hotel portion of 301 mission excludes it from tallest residential west of miss.

Anyway, looks like 1160 mission was approved.

7b. 2002.0628E!KXCV (J. MILLER: (415) 558-6344)

1160 MISSION STREET - northwest side between Seventh and Eighth Streets, with additional frontage on Stevenson Street, Lots 37, 38 and 56 in Assessor's Block 3702 - Review under Planning Code Section 309 and for exceptions, to construct a new building approximately 23 stories and 235 feet in height, with a gross area approximately 497,000 square feet, containing approximately 246 dwelling units and 5400 square feet of ground floor retail, and a parking garage, to replace an existing surface-level parking lot containing 168 spaces. The requested exceptions are for bulk requirements of Section 270 and for excedences of the pedestrian comfort wind speed criteria of Section 148. The site is in a C-3-G (Downtown General Commercial) District and in 150-S and 240-S Height and Bulk Districts. The project is the subject of a concurrent hearing for a Conditional Use authorization.

Preliminary Recommendation: Approval with Conditions

From my own poking around, I found some specs on the city office building project on tenth and mission:

"The preliminary plans for the 24-story office development on the southwest corner of Tenth and Market Street will house approximately 500,000 square feet of office space that will be occupied by the City of San Francisco. There will be below grade parking of 83 stalls. A day care center is included in the plans.

The ground floor would contain

A partially enclosed public plaza
A five-floor atrium
Loading facilities
About 6,000 sq. ft. of retail
The main body of the office building is pulled back from the street about 5 stories (podium design) so it is more pleasant for pedestrians. The main entry at the corner of 10th and Market will have “indoor – outdoor space” which addresses the wind issues. . The 10th Street side will have offices such as the PUC etc so the public can access. There is a glass wall facing north with a direct site line to City Hall.
In the design the windows do not all line up so it gives the appearance of a gentle weave fabric. There will be a terrace on the top north side open to the public.

Craig Adelman gave an over view of the residential element. The first phase will be a 14-story tower approximately 150 feet containing 180 affordable units for seniors.

The second phase will be a 21-story tower and will likely be a mixed-income development with approximately 220 units. However, the funding for this second phase has not been secured at this point. Both housing towers will include ground floor commercial space and will share a large podium courtyard at the second level.

The residential towers will be linked by a glass enclosed common space. This “Town Square” space is an open, casual gathering space that will provide residents with a space that can function as an informal meeting place to a venue for town meetings that can accommodate the greater neighborhood. Along the Tenth Street side there will be large roll-up “garage” doors that allow the space to be opened to the street. Along Market Street retail uses will hopefully include a restaurant for active night time use.

They expect to be under construction within three years and hope to have all funding in place so both phases can be started at the same time. They are in the process of working with all City departments in developing this project.
"

Also there was this:
"Looking at the global picture she noted that the 1160 Mission project is sandwiched between the GSA Project and the Trinity Projects."

Do we know anything about the GSA project?
