The Heritage on Fillmore

March 28, 2007

Listings for The Heritage on Fillmore (at 1310 Fillmore Street) were just put on the MLS.

This is a new and very exciting development in the Fillmore District. On the ground level it will have Yoshi’s Jazz Club and Japanese Restaurant, and the Blue Mirror Restaurant and Lounge, featuring Caribbean soul food. Because there aren’t many high rise buildings around, views from the higher floors are excellent.

These are the listings that have been put on the MLS:

No. 505 - 1 bedroom (827 sf) - $570,000
No. 302 - 2 bedroom (1211 sf) - $775,000
No. 902 - 2 bedroom (1407 sf) - $965,000
No. 501 - 3 bedroom (1513 sf) - $985,000

There are only 80 condos in the building, and they’re been selling well. It is expected that the units will be delivered to owners as early as the end of May.

At under $700 per square foot, these listings are a pretty good value.

The sales office is at the corner of Fillmore and Eddy. If you haven’t gone yet, I’d be happy to accompany you and help you through the sales process (email damionmatthews@gmail.com for more info.)

Renderings of 10th and Market

March 23, 2007

Here are two renderings of the exciting new project going up at 10th and Market, designed by Heller-Manus (the architectural team behind The Infinity, The Metropolitan, 199 New Montgomery, and many other projects across the country).

It will consist of two buildings sharing a common base and containing approximately 719 dwelling units, approximately 19,000 square feet of commercial space, and a garage with a capacity of up to 668 parking spaces (578 residential spaces and 90 commercial spaces), according to the Business Times.

The taller north tower, at the corner of Tenth and Market Streets, will be 35 stories and approximately 352 feet high with a 12-story, 123-foot-high base along Market Street. The shorter south tower, at the corner of Tenth and Jessie Streets, will be 19 stories and approximately 220 feet high. The two towers will be connected by a nine-story, 93-foot-high base running along Tenth Street. As there are few high-rise buildings nearby, views from 10th and Market should be fantastic.

With the Argenta under construction across the street, the revitalization of Fox Plaza Apartments, and Symphony Towers, The Hayes, 140 South Van Ness, and the Soma Grand within three blocks of this building, the mid-market area is certainly becoming a viable, quality alternative to the South Beach/Rincon area, which is pricing out a lot of people.

The commercial space is especially important, as that area is currently lacking in the kind of ground floor retail space that’s needed for a vibrant residential neighborhood. If they can get a great restaurant, an art gallery, and some small local businesses in there, people will wonder why someone didn’t think of using that area before.

Demolition has already begun at the site.

What Sold Fast: Four Seasons

March 14, 2007

Four Seasons

Great location. Fantastic views. And best of all, it’s in the Four Seasons. No wonder this residence sold so quickly. Listed at $1.95 million, the 1453 square foot condo with perfect city skyline views from the 22nd floor, went into contract in under two weeks. No word on the final sales price.
