Transbay Block 1 Tower Construction Underway

Transbay Block 1 Tower Under Construction

At 160 Folsom, construction is well underway as the first floors of Transbay Block 1 Tower are emerging. This twisting addition to the San Francisco skyline designed by Studio Gang will be completed in 2020. The surrounding landscape, streetscape, alleyway, rooftop spaces, and amenities are designed by  INTERSTICE Architects.

This collaborative project pairs sustainability and landscape connectivity with human technology and development. The Ecological Corridor Concept (pictured below) promotes symbiotic relationships between the natural and built environment, connecting the new Transbay corridor park with the Bay. INTERSTICE Architects looks forward to the extended terrain of the alleyways and multiple rooftops taking shape to enhance the city’s civic realm and urban forests.
