Lowdown: West Bay Builders bought the former Hooper's South End Grain Warehouse back in 2007; the building was constructed in 1874, and survived the 1906 earthquake/ fires. It's facade will be preserved during the building process. (History, the instant value add.) The projected 99 foot-tall building will be smaller than others in the area (South Beach Marina Apartments, Towers at the Embarcadero, Brannan Towers).
