Proposed S.F. skyscraper would rank 11th in America, highest outside NYC and Chicago
A proposed new skyscraper in downtown San Francisco would be the tallest building in the U.S. outside of New York and Chicago — bumping Philadelphia and Los Angeles down in the rankings. At 1,225 feet, the tower at Market and Beale streets would be the 11th tallest skyscraper in the U.S., coming in just under the Empire State Building's 1,250 feet and just above the Bank of America Tower's 1,200 feet, both in New York City. That's still about 550 feet shorter than the tallest building in the U.S. — One World Trade Center in New York, which soars at 1,776 feet tall, including the spire at the top. The building, which would include residential, office and retail space, would also become the tallest building west of the Mississippi, a record currently held by Los Angeles's Wilshire Grand Center, a hotel and office building that stands at 1,100 feet tall. It will also knock Salesforce Tower, currently the second tallest building in the west at 1,070 feet, down to third place. Currently, the Wilshire Grand and Salesforce Tower are the only two buildings in the western U.S. that are among the top 20 tallest skyscrapers in the country. In all of North America, the top 20 tallest buildings are currently all in the U.S., but there is one under construction that could be taller than the proposed San Francisco tower — the Torre Rise in Monterrey, Mexico, which is projected to be the second tallest building in North America at just under 1,560 feet. The project, brought forward by Hines, a co-developer of the Salesforce Tower, would encompass an entire city block, and includes restoring the original historic buildings in the PG&E/Matson block and converting a small office building on Beale into residential units.
