8th and Harrison

8th and Harrison is an entire city block of market rate housing being developed by Archstone in San Francisco’s SoMa district. The project will provide 410 (25% affordable) units of much needed rental apartments. Some of the unique characteristics of the design include placing taller structures along the busy corridors of 8th and Harrison Street while reducing the scale along the side and rear alley Gordon Street. There will also be internal alleyways for vehicular circulation through the site. In response to community concerns for open space, we have dedicated a corner of the property for use as a public park. At the ground floor along the major streets, we are providing retail and commercial space with high ceilings.
