We are getting close to the Fall of ‘07 (the time that the new 900 Minnesota Street project is supposed to “open”). It’s not too often that you see a new SF development (especially one that is not in a giant high rise and is marketing itself as “local”) advertised in the Powell Street Bart station, maybe it’s a sign of the times?

900 Minnesota Street a.k.a. Homes on Esprit Park is a project that is blending the history of the Dogpatch neighborhood with stylish design while creating a low impact on the environment. This is being accomplished by converting an existing structure (In 1906 the structure was built to be the Schilling Wine Sellers and was later used as the Esprit company headquarters) and by careful choice of materials. Additinally, the developers are planning for commercial business and open space, making this project a welcome addition to the Central Waterfront.

The folks over at the marketing department for the Homes on Esprit Park have unveiled some new detailed images of what the project and units will look like and it’s definitely worth a peak. We’ve included links to individual units below.

The sales office is expected to open in early autumn at 900 Minnesota Street.

We’ll keep you posted with further developments.

Over a year ago we started to share some information on the newest development in the Central Waterfront/Dogpatch neighborhood–Homes on Esprit Park. Recently a new website for the project went live and it features neighborhood information, building and neighborhood history, project overview, floor plans and it has a slight insight into pricing (homes ranging from the $600,000s to high one millions).

Sales office opens this Fall if you have any interest…

Some of you may be following the current change and construction down at 900 Minnesota. Today we received an update from BUILD Inc. about the project:

“The entire site is now fenced and construction trailers have been placed in the old parking lot. We have done all of the “soft” demolition, removing the interior fittings and furnishings. We worked hard to recycle about 85% of the material that has been removed. We are scheduled to commence the demolition structural elements of the building on Monday, August 20th. Since we are “harvesting” most of the material, it will need to be hand-dismantled, bundled or crated, then moved to a mill and warehouse in Mt. Shasta, California. Some of the material will be coming back to be used in the new construction.

In order to have enough room for this operation and the excavation of the garage in the northern half of the site, the rebuilding of 20th Street, and the extension of Esprit Park, we will need to include all of 20th Street within the fencing. 20th Street, between Minnesota and Indiana, will close starting Thursday August 24th.
As construction progresses, the city will require us to move the fences away from the building facades to provide a safety buffer. Ultimately, we will take up the sidewalk and the parking lane on both Minnesota and Indiana Streets. To minimize the temporary loss of parking in the neighborhood, we will ask DPT to relocate the perpendicular parking from the west side of Minnesota St. to the east side opposite the project only. We will work to keep all construction parking to Indiana St. Additionally, we are hoping to rent the space under the20th Street overpass east of Minnesota as an additional parking area.”

This should be an exciting addition to the Central Waterfront neighborhood.
