Salesforce Tower, formerly known as the Transbay Tower, is a 1070ft supertall office skyscraper under construction in the South of Market district of downtown San Francisco. Located at 415 Mission Street between First and Fremont Streets, next to the Transbay Transit Center site, Salesforce Tower is the centerpiece of the San Francisco Transbay redevelopment plan that contains a mix of office, transportation, retail, and residential uses. When completed, the tower will be the tallest in San Francisco and a defining building in the burgeoning South of Market area. With a top roof height of 970ft and an overall height of 1070ft, it will be the second tallest building west of the Mississippi River after the Wilshire Grand Center in Los Angeles.HistoryDeveloper Hines, with a proposal by architect César Pelli, was selected as the winner of a global competition in 2007 to entitle and purchase the site. A seven-member jury of development experts assembled by the Transbay Joint Powers Authority (TJPA) selected Hines over proposals from Forest City Enterprises and architect Richard Rogers; and from Rockefeller Development Group Corp. and Skidmore Owings & Merrill. In 2012, Boston Properties acquired a 50% stake in the project and in 2013 acquired most of Hines' remaining interest to become 95% owners of the project.
Melding technology and creativity, the Salesforce Tower is designed specifically to promote the health and well-being of its inhabitants. The building is being designed by world-renowned architecture firm Pelli, Clarke, Pelli Architects. César Pelli is known for building some of the world's tallest buildings and urban landmarks.
