Two of the bigger tenants in the office portion is Obvious Ventures for 75,000 square feet and Credit Karma for 46,000 square feet. The office space is now fully leased.
52,000 square feet of the property is made up of ground floor retail. Among the main tenants in this space are Marshall’s and Starbucks. There are two vacancies in the retail section of the property totaling 15,600 square feet. This makes the total vacancy in the property at roughly 5.3 percent.
760 Market is located just a few blocks from the Union Square. This region of San Francisco attracts shoppers from all over the world on an annual basis.
