Salesforce Tower at 415 Mission Street in San Francisco was designed by César Pelli of Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects for developers Hines and Boston Properties. Groundbreaking was on March 27, 2013, and the first tenants moved in on January 8, 2018. Salesforce signed an anchor lease in 2014. The article names no architectural style.
The obelisk-shaped tower has 61 floors, an architectural height of 1,070 feet (326 m) and a roof at 970 feet (296 m). A glass and steel curtain wall wraps a steel frame and concrete core, with white aluminum fins projecting up to two feet. Magnusson Klemencic Associates was structural engineer.
Forty-two piles reach bedrock nearly 300 feet (91 m) down, because the site is landfill prone to liquefaction. The top six floors carry Jim Campbell's Day for Night LED sculpture. The 61st floor is a lounge, and public tours have run monthly since 2019.
