Mission bay south redevelopment project area, discussion and action, resolution number 172016. Madam director . Thank you, madam secretary, good afternoon to the commissioners and thank you so much to the public for joining us. Commissioners, before you is a design approval for an Office Project, in fact, the last design approval for an Office Project in mission bay, its sponsored by alexandria real estate and uber, youll see as part of the staff presentation, it unbacker includes ground floor retail and what i believe is the first onsite child care in mission bay or in the city to inmrement that planning code requirement incorporated as part of the redevelopment plan, so were pleased to bring that before you, that will involve a secondary use finding as you saw for other actions, should the commission adopt the related design approvals before you. Michelle da guzman who is a Development Specialist will be walking through the presentation for you and this is her first presentation before the commission. Welcome. Welcome. Thank you, director, good afternoon, chair rosales and commissioners, i am Michelle Deguzman and a specialist for [inaudible] bay, this is a major phase is a basic concept skem malt i can design, block 26, parcel 1 and block 27, parcel 1, the application includes two [inaudible] for mission bay design for development. I will start by providing an overview of the site in the adjacent areas, provide a summary of the relevant approvals as well as the 2016 major phase, i will then introduce [inaudible] from alexandria representing the project sponsor and the Developers Team will present an overview of the project design. I will return to review the requested variance, discuss the child care in the project, the cac review, the contracting and workforce goal and is the next steps moving forward. This is a location map for the site, as you can see, it is in the southeastern portion of the of Mission Bay South and a little closer, this aerial map, you can see that immediately to the south is the Golden State Warriors event center and approximately one block to the north is the Mission Bay Commons open space. To the it is serviced directly by the t stops that run along there, the ucsf mission bay stops. The amenities are theres several amenities in mission bay as this is a mature redevelopment district and so theres a great deal of services, both public and private, public safety, that is hard to read, but it was difficult to get them all on the map because theres such a rich variety of service that is are available, but a lot of shopping and Dining Options and we feel this set of amenities will serve the future development well. In terms of prior approvals, prior approvals, in 2000, alexandria had approved a major phase and they were associated bcfd approvals for block 2628 that this project sits on, as a result of these approvals, four buildings were built, and more importantly, the infrastructure to service all of blocks 26 and 27 was approved, constructed and is either pending or accepted by the city. This includes the current site which is not yet developed but the infrastructure is already available to serve it. In 2011, a major phase was approved for the mos that are subject to this approval, block 26, parcel 1, block 27, parcel 1, as well as blocks 2934, this was approved for sale force. Com for a future campus. No approvals, no buildings, excuse me, were built as a result of this approval, however, this major phase sur planted all the prior major phases that had occurred prior to it, however, as a result of this major phase, the approval that is are associated with blocks 26 and 27, parcel 1, were changed from the original alexandria. Currently, the project sponsor has submitted a new major phase as well as a basic concept Schematic Design application. This new major phase will bring the approvals for the site within the framework that is available under the plan and reflects more accurately the proposal put forth by the developer. If this is approved by the commission, this submittal will submit sur plants the prior major phase that was previously approved under the sales force proposal. Staff has reviewed the major phase proposal and it is consistent with the south plan, it is within the limitations on the size, height and building type that is described in the south plan and is noted before, no additional infrastructure can needed to be built or developed in order to [inaudible] the staff review is primarily focused on the design and modest program changes. With that, i would like to introduce tritsia from alexandria who will introduce the project design as well as introduce the design team. Thank you, michelle. Madam chair, commissioners, its a pleasure to be here again with you today. As you know, we have been working at alexandria for quite soe time at mission bay building out the commercial space around the ucsf campus, since that time, we are now seeing the end of the buildout of this community and were very excited to bring this project to you because we see it as the keystone piece that will finish out that section of third street. Were delighted to bring this project, its a two building commercial Office Complex that will house Corporate Headquarters for our joint venture partner, uber technology, representing uber is adoni, head of global workplace, we have put together a fantastic design team and you will get to see the presentation shortly. Its composed after a mix of well known International Architectural firm in partnership with San Francisco based consultants, and we are pleased to say that we have exceeded the Small Business goals of the mission bay plan. What i would like to do now if you will allow me, i will call out the names of the representatives of some of our team, the entire team was too large to be here today, but those who are here, i would like to introduce, casada architecture is the architect of record, so we have fred casada here, thank you very much, and we have our Architect Design architect is shop architecture, theres a number of them and youll hear from them later, if they would all stand up now.

We are very excited, this project is going to be fantastic addition to third street. We now have our design lead oma toravaka who will do a presentation of the project and well be here again to answer any questions you may have. Good afternoon, madam commissioner sorry, madam chair, commissioners, directors, thank you for the opportunity to present our project here this afternoon. I would like to begin by talking a little bit about shop architect, were a firm thats based in new york, its a firm of 170 people and were very much interested in traditional materials and new technology combined to create great performing buildings, in our minds, an application of these materials are not just tacked on, they have something to say they have something to do in the functions of the building, so whether its our super tall towers in new york city or solar collector facade you see in the middle or marl berry which is a brick cladding on an apartment building, were interested in what the materials say about the place but also how they help the building perform better. In San Francisco, its a great pleasure to work on ubers headquarters, this used to be my home, i lived here for a couple of years and learned to celebrate the city. I think of San Francisco as this balance between nature and the built environment. As you move up the street that climb the hills of San Francisco, theres always a reward at the top. Theres a public space, theres a vista, theres a park, something thats very unique to the city and something we wanted to celebrate and bring to mission bay in this project for uber. The concept of the building is really very much about this vertical city, and at the top, you would be rewarded with vistas of the bay, always again referring to the Natural Environment and the beauty of the city that surrounds us. Furthermore, we were inspired by mission bay in particular, the images you see on stream are specific to mission bay infrastructure, to art work, to the history of the place, the material has inspired our material selections for the building and will continue to inspire the use of public art throughout the site. As its been noted, the location plan is really focused on the intersection of third and south street, its a critical site for a couple of reasons, its well served by transit but its also an infill site that complete it is trajectory of buildings moving diagonally across the image from ucsf towards the residential neighborhood at the top of the slide. As this site becomes part of the integral fabric of mission bay, we see it as becoming a critical neighborhood in the neighborhood, in large part because of its presence at the transit stop which can be seen best in this image, this is the intersection of third and south street. Were looking at the corner of the lower building which is six storeys and the further build, the tower just across peer point lane is 11 storeys, the buildings Work Together, theyre speaking to each other but theyre also connected, theyre connected visually and physically, but most importantly, theyre connected to the neighborhood beyond it by virtue of scale and interest and by virtue of how we treated the ground playing, we intended to make this a great building for mission bay and a great San Francisco street. The building really grows out of a mixed mode ecology, now, thats a unique story to most office buildings, this will be one of the first mixed mode buildings in San Francisco and what that means is that were meeting title 24 mandates in a very creative way, not to security the issue but to reduce energy consumption, the way in which were doing that is by designing a front porch if you will into the building. That front porch is naturally ventilated, it doesnt require air conditioning, the windows will open to let natural air in on days when the weather allows it. So, what you see here is a series of meeting spaces, vertical circulation through the building, theres a stare that connects all of the floors and most people arriving at the building will have the option to take the stairs rather than the elevator. This interior image of the mixed mode space, the front porch if you will, shows the windows open, they wont be open with manual cranks or with people operating them, instead theyll be operating on a bms which is the Building Management system, that operated system sorry, that automatic system is very much similar to the hatches at the California Academy of sciences. They open naturally when the building needs to breathe, when it needs to exhale and let the hot air out and when it needs to bring fresh air in. In addition to the performance of that space, youll see a lot of materiality, warm materiality, but now ill describe the site plan pronely, theres key element ins the site plan that weve worked hard with planning and with ocii staff to get right. These are the elements that are going to bring to life the city block that are going the bring to life third street and south street and also activate peer point land. In particular, were interested in talking about retail. The sidewalk activation really has to do with the uses that were putting just beyond the sidewalk. There are three components of retail, color coded in yellow, one of them is strategically located at the corner of 16th and south, the other is just a few feet to the north at the mid block and the last one is at the northern corner of the development. In a strategic location because of its add jays sense si to a courtyard, a publicly accessible courtyard that will be completed to add jays sense si to the building right next door. In addition, youll see in pink is the color coding thats denoting the child care facility. The dedicated child care facility also has dedicated parking within the parking garage and all of the parking is accessible along peer point lane rather than having to cross the street and go into traffic conditions. Finally, youll see that theres dedicated outdoor space thats adjacent to the child care facility thats just above the pink rectangle in the image, and in addition, there are two service and garbage collection points in the case of the Northern Building that will be shared with the neighbor, in the case of the southern building, the access will be along south street just east of the corner of third street removed from the main intersection. One of the very unique aspects of this project is the provision of child care. It is the only commercial property in mission bay that delivers child care korkt section 414 of the planning code, rather than paying the fee. Ubers very much committed to build thing child care and making it permanently accessible to members to have community, it will serve 59 children. Access is convenient and safe through the dedicated parking thats located in the garage, there will be no cars [inaudible] or third street parked or blocking traffic because they have dedicated 1520 minute wait, you know, 1520 minute parking spots so that parents can pick up and drop off children. So, since the beginning of the design, weve always intended to generate a district here that has a great sense of place in arao ufl, the image you see on the screen is right at the main entrance of the building at third street and south street, this is the front door, as you look up, youll see what we call an occulus, it lets you look into the sill lair yum, the front porch of the building and see activities of people moving around. As you loo
