598 Bryant Street

The project at 598 Bryant Street in San Francisco’s South of Market neighborhood involves the consolidation of three adjacent parcels—598 Bryant Street, 475 Fourth Street, and 181 Stillman Street—into a single 20,010-square-foot site. Existing structures, including a gas station, a 966-square-foot convenience store, a 10,757-square-foot commercial building with PDR and office space, and a 3,200-square-foot commercial building, will be demolished to make way for a new 33-story, 337-foot-tall residential tower comprising 395 dwelling units. The building will include a one-level parking garage accessible from Stillman Street and a 355-foot-tall elevator penthouse. Rooftop mechanical systems will consist of 14 condensing units, two amenity rooftop units, two ventilation units, and a single corridor unit, with an additional diesel-powered emergency generator and 14 condensing units located on Level 3. The development will require a deep foundation system featuring approximately 280 torque-down piles extending 75 feet below grade, topped with a variable-thickness pile cap, and will involve the excavation of 18,100 square feet to depths between nine and 14 feet, removing around 6,300 cubic yards of soil. Construction is expected to last 28 months, with on-site staging and temporary lane closures on Bryant Street during concrete pours. The project has been approved under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) through a ministerial exemption under Sections 21080(b)(1) and 15268, classifying it as categorically exempt from full environmental review. The San Francisco Planning Department is the lead agency overseeing regulatory compliance and final approval, which was formally issued on July 3, 2026, following a filed notice of exemption on July 7, 2026. The project applicant is N17 LLC, represented by Oisin Heneghan, with Rachel Schuett, Senior Planner at the Planning Department, serving as the primary contact. No formal contract vehicle, solicitation number, procurement type, pricing structure, or federal acquisition regulation clauses apply, as this is a local municipal development project governed by state and city land use regulations rather than a federally funded or contracted action. The only financial transaction documented is an $86 filing fee
