Embarcadero West, Modern skyscraper in Financial District, San Francisco, United States.
The 34-floor Embarcadero West tower features a glass and steel exterior that reflects sunlight across San Francisco's waterfront district.
Completed in 1989, the building emerged during a period of substantial redevelopment along the Embarcadero waterfront following the removal of elevated highways.
The structure represents a shift in San Francisco's architectural landscape, incorporating commercial spaces that support the city's growing financial sector.
The building contains multiple elevator banks serving different floor zones, with direct access to public transportation and waterfront walking paths.
Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association acquired the property for 205 million dollars in 2005, marking one of the largest real estate transactions that year.
