I'm sure the city isn't building the skyscaper. Which private owners or corporations would put themselves in the red zone to launch community outreach programs?

Maybe in another world lol

that first one is fucking gay....the red shit looks like its unfinished. when I saw the second one I thought "damn, thats hella clean. I'd like to see that shit in san fran----"

then I saw the 3rd one and damn near forgot about the others....that one is sick as fuck.


on a side note, that one they're building by the bridge (that kayvee posted) was supposed to be the tallest in SF before this one, right?

No, the Transamerica pyramid will still be the tallest until the Transbay tower gets built....the Millenium tower will only be ~600 ft tall...
