Interesting project. Too bad they couldn't figure out how to convert it to residential, as I don't think DTSF needs any more additional office and retail space as of right now.

Adaptive Reuse For 838 Market Street By Union Square, San Francisco



BY: ANDREW NELSON 5:00 AM ON FEBRUARY 21, 2023

New plans have been filed to modernize and expand a commercial infill along 838 Market Street in the Union Square neighborhood in San Francisco. The plans include facade alterations, interior renovations, moving the elevator shaft, and creating an additional office floor. Aralon Properties is the project sponsor.

The existing five-story structure at 838 Market Street contains around 67,930 square feet. Once the expansion is complete, the 87-foot tall structure will yield around 77,250 square feet, with 45,420 square feet for offices and 29,680 square feet for retail. The new office space will be subject to the Prop M allocation from the small-cap allocation pool.

OTJ Architects is responsible for the design. The new design reskins the existing concrete-clad build with white glass fiber reinforced precast concrete panels, emphasizing the crown element of the facade. The retail area will be covered with a floor-to-ceiling window wall framed by dark stone.
