One Market Plaza is a complex of three office buildings at 1 Market Street along the San Francisco Embarcadero. The historic 11-story Southern Pacific Building, also known as “The Landmark”, was completed in 1916, and incorporated into the development in 1976 that includes the 43-storey 172 m (564 ft) Spear Tower, and the 27-storey, 111 m (364 ft) Steuart Tower. The complex was renovated in 1996 by the architect firm César Pelli & Associates Architects. In Spring 2014 a new renovation began, which is still ongoing.

After Southern Pacific’s merger with Union Pacific, the Landmark building was sold to The Martin Group in 1997 for $50 million, after plans by another developer to convert the building to a hotel fell through. An $88 million renovation brought modern amenities such as air conditioning and hot water to the building. It later hosted the headquarters of Del Monte Foods for ten years on the building’s top three floors.

2. 425 Market Street

1 Metropolitan Life Plaza

425 Market Street is an office skyscraper located on the corner of Market- and Fremont Streets in the financial district of San Francisco, California. The 160 m (520 ft), 38 floor office tower was completed in 1973. It was built by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as their “Pacific Coast Headquarters” and was called “1 Metropolitan Plaza”. It was built as a modern replacement for their older headquarters on Nob Hill at 600 Stockton Street (now remodeled as the Ritz-Carlton Hotel). It was among the first buildings in San Francisco to have a high-speed transport system (a glorified dumb waiter) for computer data cards, files and inner-office mail, at the time a state-of-the-art system.^{[citation needed]}

Its largest tenant today^[when?] is law firm Morrison & Foerster LLP, one of the original tenants when the building first opened.^[

Market Center, formerly known as the Standard Oil Buildings and later the Chevron Towers, is a complex comprising two skyscrapers at 555–575 Market Street in the Financial District of downtown San Francisco, California. It served as the headquarters of the Chevron Corporation until 2001. It now serves as the headquarters for Swrve New Media INC.

575 Market Street is a 40-story, 175 m (574 ft) building completed in 1975, the taller of the two towers. 555 Market Street is the shorter tower at 95 m (312 ft) with 22 stories, and was completed in 1964. The two buildings are surrounded by small ornamental plazas. Both buildings are terra cotta over a granite base.

History

Chevron occupied the Market Center complex from 1965 until 2001 when it moved its headquarters to its campus in San Ramon, California.^[9]^[10] In 1999, Chevron sold the two buildings to Tishman Speyer and Travelers Real Estate Ventures for US$189.1 million and leased back the office space.^[9]

At the time the company officially moved its headquarters, it had already moved most workers to San Ramon, leaving only about 200 employees in San Francisco.^[9] By 2003, the complex was 83 percent vacant, and a joint venture between DivcoWest Properties and RREEF bought the property for US$79.5 million. In 2010, RREEF sold the complex to Manulife Financial for US$267 million.

Market Street Place

935 MARKET STREET, SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94103

The backhoe is digging. New fencing is up. And construction crews are on site.

Market Street Place, the most highly anticipated new retail development since the expanded Westfield San Francisco Centre opened in 2006, is off and running.

The $150 million, 250,000 square-foot retail project doesn’t have any tenants yet, but advocates of the much-hyped Mid-Market revival, including Mayor Ed Lee and SupervisorJane Kim, hope that the development will fill in a key derelict block between Fifth and Sixth streets.

On Wednesday the developer, Cypress Equities, will celebrate the official groundbreaking

“Our contractor is mobilized and we are going,” said Cypress Equities CEO Chris Maguire.

The project will be completed in July of 2016.

“We have a very good amount of interest in the project,” he said. “We are in negotiation with a number of tenants. We want to make sure we have the right mix. We want to get it right the first time — you really do want to be careful.”

An announcement on specific tenants is probably two or three months away, he said.

The project will likely have two floors of food: one on the fifth level, which will have 18-foot ceilings and expansive patios, the other on the basement level, which could be more of a food court concept.

Originally Cypress had chased value-based retailers such as Target, Marshalls, JC Penney and Nordstrom Rack. All four of those stores considered the property, but ultimately went elsewhere. Instead, Cypress is talking to fashion-forward retailers.

“It’s not luxury, but its not discount,” Maguire said. “We have a great mix — some not in the city at all and others that would be a relocation.”

Maguire pointed to the success of the Hall, the pop-up food emporium at 1018 Market St. that has been drawing crowds with beer, wine and an array of six food stalls. That could serve as an inspiration for what happens at Market Street Place, he said.

Mayor Ed Lee, who will likely make the rebirth of Mid-Market a central theme of his reelection campaign, said “We have waited a long time to see a project at this critical site, and I am thrilled to see construction begin.” He added that the transformation of Mid-Market “is something we don’t take for granted and is something we stay focused on every day.
