The plan of this mixed-use tower, generated by its site at the 36-degree intersection of two Street grids, echoes Market Street’s historie flatiron forms.

The plan symbolizes the building’s pivotal position in the financial district, while also referring to the cylindrical 101 California Street building. The program comprises 16 floors of offices, six floors of residences, retail facilities, a health club, and parking.

The first two stories form a 40-foot high retail base that aligns with three historie buildings facing the site. A two-story public gallery bisects the base to connect Pine and Market Streets, serving separate lobbies for the office tower, apartments, retail, and garage.

Six fuli floors of apartments are situated at the top of the building, with 70 per cent of the perimeter open to the outside.

The top floor of apartments and mechanical space provides a strong cornice linę. A copper dome encloses the cooling towers, echoing the cylindrical building next door.
