288 Pacific Avenue is a new 33-unit residential development in the Jackson Square area of San Francisco. The building takes design cues from the historical warehouses in the area, offering a modern interpretation of the brick low-rise structures that still adorn the neighborhood.
The site wraps the north and east sides of the Old Ship Saloon, a designated historical site at the intersection of Battery and Pacific, and the massing of the new building has been articulated to address this adjacency, as well as that of 733 Front Street, east of the site. 288 Pacific is carved to include multiple open space opportunities, and the individual volumes vary in height, keeping in context with the urban fabric.
