SAN FRANCISCO-In an update to a previous story about the development of 270 Brannan St. here, Colliers International says that demand from the technology sector remains robust as tenants in all phases of the growth cycle desire a San Francisco location. According to SVP Mike McCarthy, “this is in response to where their creative and engineering talent prefer to work.”
Colliers serves as the 270 Brannan's leasing team. For SKS, who is developing the project, 270 Brannan represents the latest in a series of successful development and redevelopment projects in SOMA, including market leading buildings such as 888 Brannan and 475 Brannan. SKS has assembled a team with deep “creative office” expertise to execute the 270 Brannan development, including Pfau Long Architects, and Pankow as the project's general contractor. 270 Brannan marks the fifth development project in SOMA that Pfau Long has designed for SKS.
SKS began pursuing entitlements for the property mid-2012 and obtained all discretionary approvals, including unanimous Planning Commission support, in early October 2013. “[270 Brannan Street] does everything correct and it is a building that is respectful of everything around it. It is a high challenge to many other architects and I am extremely pleased to be able to support it,” says Kathrin Moore, Planning Commissioner, upon voting to approve the project earlier this year.
McCarthy adds that “SOMA continues to be the most vibrant sub-market in San Francisco and well-located, first class office projects such as 270 Brannan are the most coveted product within that sub-market.”
