Groundbreaking Completed for 54-story Tower Near Transbay

SAN FRANCISCO-Jay Paul Company has begun construction at 181 Fremont, a world-class residential and office tower heralding the next phase of growth in the city’s South of Market (SOMA) district.

The developer say the project will also take the lead in defining the new Transbay Transit Center complex neighborhood. 181 Fremont is a 54-story office and residential tower development that marks Jay Paul Company’s first urban high rise project. The name Park 181 will refer specifically to the ultra-luxury residences located on the uppermost levels of the new high rise. Mayor Ed Lee joined Jay Paul to mark the commencement of construction at 181 Fremont’s official groundbreaking on Tuesday, November 12, and the mixed-use tower is scheduled to open in early 2016.
