The Potrero is Open
The newest development in Potrero Hill is now officially open (as of last Friday)! The sales office located at 444 De Haro Street is open and staffed and they have a model unit within the office (much like the Palms did before they were ready to give people walking tours). Reservations are being accepted starting 2/17 and their preferred lenders are Countrywide Financial and Wells Fargo. I will be viewing the model unit tomorrow, if anybody has already seen it, we’d love to hear about it!
[update: After spending a few minutes in the new sales center I got a better feel for the project. My conclusion (keep in mind, this is based off of 10 minutes in the brand new sales center with nobody there to answer my questions) is that it does not differentiate itself from any other new condo complex outside of the fact that the location is fantastic and there is a Whole Foods on the street level. The model kitchen is shown above in the picture and the renderings of the living room of a small unit looks no different than most of the new developments out there (think The Palms, The Lansing, etc.). We are still interested in hearing what you think...]

310 Townsend: New Condo’s, little hype
310 Townsend is a new warehouse conversion in Mission Bay that has been quietly under construction for quite some time. The building was seismically retrofitted to include underground parking and 45 Exposed brick and timber condos with arched brick windows. The developers’ website boasts:
- Soaring ceilings up to 14’
- Most homes with balcony access
- Flowing hardwood floors
- Exposed brick walls and timber beams
- Studio Becker European built kitchen cabinets with granite counter tops
- Bosch stainless steel appliances
- Kohler bathroom fixtures with contrasting limestone counters
There is not a price list or floor plan on the developers’ website and suprisingly this particular project has not received as much press as many other new developments in the neighborhood. We happen to be fans of brick conversions and the bustling neighborhood, so if anybody has further info., please share!
[update: We now have a price list, but since almost every unit has a different price, it's too much info. to publish here. We'd be happy to share it all however, just ask. So that you have an idea; the lowest priced 1bed/1bath is $525K and the highest priced 2bed/2bath + den is going for $1.296m.]

A change is gonna come–PART II
About one year ago I wrote about some changes that were taking place on or near Potrero Hill in regards to housing and retail space. About 1 year later, I thought it was worth revisiting to check up on the progress. Above (click on pictures to expand) you see the hole that was once S&C Ford, then an empty lot for years and now a major construction zone. This project will eventually be a Whole Foods grocery store and several condo units on the North Slope of Potrero Hill.
Directly above are some images of a building that was demolished about 11 months ago and is now under construction at 7th and King Streets (601 King St.). The planned building is a David Baker design and will include 224 living units and 7200+ sq. ft. of retail space.
Both projects are moving forward during an interesting time in the real estate market. Often times when projects are completed in “soft” markets the developers decide to rent the units for a few years so as to take the tax benifits. Though neither of these projects are taking deposits yet, it will be interesting to see how they go about bringing the completed units on the market.
Stay tuned for Part III
