Four Embarcadero Center, Skyscraper in Financial District, San Francisco, United States
Four Embarcadero Center is a 45-story office tower located in San Francisco's Financial District near the waterfront. The building features glass and concrete facades that reflect the surrounding bay and city views from multiple angles.
Construction of this tower was completed in 1982 on the site of a former produce market near the waterfront. The project transformed what had been a working dock area into an office district that became a hub for major corporations.
Architect John C. Portman Jr designed the tower as part of a larger development that transformed the Financial District into a major business center.
The tower is easily accessible by public transit and situated within walking distance of waterfront attractions and dining options. The surrounding area offers plenty of places to explore both indoors and outdoors throughout the day.
Boston Properties acquired this tower in 1998 for $1.22 billion as part of their first investment on the West Coast of the United States.
