644 Broadway is part of a vibrant mixed-use
renovation project located at the juncture of San Francisco’s Chinatown and
North Beach neighbourhoods. 644 Broadway is an existing four-story, 42,000
square feet mixed use building that formerly housed the Gold Mountain Dim Sum
Restaurant, a subterranean 437-seat movie theatre, and dental offices. The
adjacent 660 Broadway is a former pet store with residential units above. Both
buildings have been extensively altered and combined to house an eclectic mix
of creative tenants including China Live, a destination Chinese food emporium
with restaurants and lounges, Boxcar Theatre company, an immersive live cabaret
theatre experience, Disher Sound Studios, FilmHouse X, and the San Francisco
Film Society’s Filmmaker-in-Residence program.
TANNERHECHT provided full architectural
services to upgrade the core and shell of both buildings, which included new
communicating openings at the ground floor, new restrooms and corridors on the
upper floors, new air conditioning and lighting systems throughout as well as
exit stair upgrades and a new entry on Broadway. In addition, TANNERHECHT
provided tenant improvement design services for the San Francisco Film Society,
Disher Sound Studios, and the Boxcar Theatre Company.
The project received the United States Green
Building Council’s (USGBC) LEED Gold-CS for Core & Shell projects in
mid-April. It was an adventurous path to Gold with our visionary clients at
Cypress Properties Group, engineering consultants MHC Engineers, stellar
contractor, CCI General Contractors, and Urban Fabrick, our green building
consultant. We thank everyone on the team for their dedication and
determination to achieve this admirable environmental goal.
