southwest corner of Second and Howard Streets (Assessor’s Block 3735, Lots 05,

project would involve removal of an existing surface parking lot and
construction of a 26-story, approximately 350-foot-tall office tower containing
about 430,650 square feet of office space in San Francisco’s southern Financial
District. The project would have about 4,800 square feet of retail space and
approximately 8,750 square feet of enclosed publicly accessible "indoor park" on
the ground floor. The proposed project would also provide 54 parking spaces on
two basement levels; about 46 bicycle parking spaces; and two off-street truck
loading spaces plus three additional service van spaces in the basement. The
proposed project includes acquisition of a portion of adjacent Lot 5 and
demolition of an existing loading dock at the
631
Howard Street (William Volker) building. The project site is within the C 3-O
(SD) Downtown Office (Special Development) District. Most of the site is within
the 350-S height and bulk district, while the northwest corner of the site is
within a 150-S height and bulk district. The project sponsor is seeking an
amendment of the height and bulk map (rezoning) and a General Plan map amendment
to increase the height and bulk limit to 350-S on the entire site. Please
note: The public review period for the Draft Environmental Impact Report is
closed. The Planning Commission does not conduct public review of Final EIRs.
