  • Arterra Pfizer moves to Mission Bay

    I’m also hearing good initial responses from the Arterra (see note about music on the Radiance) – it ‘smells nice’ which counts for much in this world of toxic building and chemical sensitivities. I’m thinking despite the location that building will also hold it’s value in years to come.

  • South Beach Pfizer moves to Mission Bay

    Sometimes it’s hard to tell what a building will shape into until it’s occupied. My worst bet early in my career was pooh poohing the Oriental Warehouse - which although the sound transferrance is abysmal - has maintained some impressive resale values and continues to be one of the most highly sought after South Beach conversion loft buildings.

  • 24 Divisadero St Discussion Tuesday on Proposed Divisadero Transit Changes

    Improving transit service along the street is one of the goals of this project. The 24 Divisadero bus line currently averages only 5.4 mph in this area due to traffic congestion, so part of the overall proposal includes a part time transit lane in the southbound direction from Fulton Street to Oak Street. To create space for this lane, which can also be used by taxis and right turning traffic, no parking would be allowed Monday to Friday on the west side of the street from Fulton to Hayes between 4 and 7pm. The existing tow-away lane from Hayes to Oak would be extended one hour.

  • Market St. & Van Ness Ave. S.F. OKs plan for 6,000 housing units

    The city Planning Department sought to remake the area with an emphasis on walking and public transportation by concentrating new housing close to major transit stops. The zoning allows developers to construct buildings that pack more residential units into a project, including boosting tower heights from 20 stories to 40 stories on some parcels near the intersection of Van Ness Avenue and Market Street.

  • 400 Beale St Sex in the City - San Francisco Real Estate Condo Rules

    Many people don’t realize that homeowners associations can, and sometimes do, initiate and foreclose on a property for non-payment of HOA dues. Rules an association adopts can impact not only the pets you can have, but the length of time you can sign a lease as well as if you can even lease your condo at all (some associations have a maximum of 75% owner to renter ratios). Is it legal to ban smoking in individual condominium units, not just in the common areas? It is, and the entire city of Belmont recently did so. Here in San Francisco, at the Bridgeview in South Beach (400 Beale Street), the homeowners narrowly defeated a proposal to ban smoking on private patios.

  • 23 Belmont Ave The Front Steps Price Per Square Foot Debate revisited

    I remember seeing a comment on the Front Steps - (great real estate blog too I must say), regarding a listing at 23 Belmont in which one commenter stated, per the tax records, that listing was a ridiculous price per square foot for the location.
