Big plans await the California Pacific Medical Center (CPMC) Sutter Health campus site in San Francisco, as TMG Partners submitted a Preliminary Project Application and Environmental Evaluation for a proposed residential project on the property. The proposal – calling for up to 250 units -- was informed by an 18-month community visioning and planning process.
The project, designed by the renowned architecture and urban planning firm Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA), carries forward the architectural character of the surrounding neighborhood. The proposal is one of the few new projects in San Francisco to be oriented towards family housing, with more than 80% of units having two or more bedrooms.
The RAMSA plans feature almost 40 individual townhouses and apartment buildings, ranging from 35 to 80 feet in height, consistent with site zoning and the scale of the surrounding neighborhoods. Building heights, setbacks, rooflines, and architecture were carefully tailored based on discussions between the project team and neighbors. Adequate parking has been provided below ground to keep cars off city streets.
The project’s design team developed its proposal through eighteen months of interactive design meetings with project neighbors, including a Visioning Advisory Committee made up of neighborhood association representatives, as well as with San Francisco City staff. The designs reflect the housing types surrounding the project site rather than a generic “project” that could be anywhere.
The project includes:
• Demolition of most existing CPMC/Sutter Health hospital facility buildings
• Conversion of the original Marshall Hale building at 3698 California to residential uses
• Retention of the existing 401 Cherry apartment building and current residents
• Construction of up to 37 new buildings, below-grade parking, and project amenities
• Building heights of approx. 35’-80’ and 3-7 stories.
• Up to 250 units with plans currently showing 240 units including 26 single-family homes and 214 multi-family units
