Request for Review and Comment before the Architectural Review Committee for the proposed exterior alterations including installation of new cladding material and fenestration on the Market Street façade and installation of a new projecting sign.

2. 2014-000362ENV                                                                                                     (P. LAVALLEY: (415) 575-9084)
1500-1580 MISSION STREET – northwest corner of Mission and 11th Streets; Lots 002 and 003 in Assessor’s Block 3506 – Review and Comment before the Architectural Review Committee on the proposed preservation alternatives in advance of publication of the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the project. The project proposes to demolish one existing building and a portion of another building on the project site, at 1500 and 1580 Mission Street, and construct a mixed-use development with two components. The residential and retail development component would include a 39-story, 396-foot-tall tower (up to 416 feet to top of the parapet enclosing mechanical equipment) with mid-rise podium elements at the corner of Mission Street and South Van Ness Avenue. The office and permit center development component would be occupied by several City and County of San Francisco (“City”) departments, and include an 18-story, 264-foot-tall tower (up to 284 feet to top of the parapet enclosing mechanical equipment) on 11th Street between Market and Mission Streets with mid-rise podium elements extending west and south from the tower. A portion of the existing former Coca-Cola bottling plant at 1500 Mission Street, including its clock tower, would be retained and converted to retail use. The project site is within the C-3-G (Downtown General) Zoning District, the Van Ness & Market Residential Special Use District, and the 85-R-2 and 85/250-R-2 Height and Bulk Districts. The proposed project would require amendments to the Market & Octavia Area Plan, Zoning Map Height and Bulk redesignations, Text Amendments to the Planning Code, and Downtown Project Authorization. 
Preliminary Recommendation: Review and Comment
