- Description
- Lessons learned at 901 Cherry Street were applied to a new, sustainable development for The Gap’s Headquarters located along the Embarcadero in San Francisco. This project's demands included incorporating sustainable features such as operable windows into a high-rise structure as well as confronting the difficulties of constructing in Bay mud. T. J. REAGAN, INC. (in association with Wilson/Equity Office) acted as development manager, directing the resolution of complex shoring requirements engineered to secure the structure two levels below grade. An additional challenge was the installation of a monumental sculpture by artist Richard Serra within the ground floor lobby during the course of the building’s construction.
