A BIG SIGH…IT’S FINISHED!
When the young entrepreneur we wrote about a few months ago found his dream bachelor pad at the 733 Front Street building, we decided to follow up and show you what he and his “designer extraordinaire,” Aarati Soman, did with the space. If you recall, the buyer joined two top-floor units of the building—units with spectacular views of the Bay, the Financial District and the City.

By June 30, we developed a clear picture of the first half of 2007, and the picture is a good one: The residential real estate market for the Barbary Coast neighborhood has set another sales record.
Let’s look at the year 2006 when there were 53 sales at the five Barbary Coast condominium developments (101 Lombard Street, 350 Jackson Street, Golden Gateway Commons, Parc Telegraph and Telegraph Landing). Those 53 sales brought in $53,313,000, with an
SocketSite & Business Times Report:
NEW CONDOS ON THE DRAWING BOARD
You may soon see 38 stories added to our western skyline. Our near-neighbors at the Pyramid building (just outside our Barbary Coast boundary) will become even closer neighbors to 248 new condominiums now on the drawing board.
Fred Allardyce, local realtor with Sotheby’s International Realty, reports the story (below) to us from SocketSite, a local blog covering real estate activity and trends. In turn, the blog reports J. T. Dineen’s story in the San Francisco Business Times.
Why Do We Care?
It could be a good thing! By adding about 414 more residents (1.67 people per unit x 248 units) to our general area we increase the likelihood of gaining more services for our neighborhood. Perhaps an upscale grocery story. If we’re lucky, a hardware store.
