Swinerton provided general contracting services to replace an existing facility that opened in 1983 with a more efficient and sustainable design. This one-story, 8,000-square-foot facility includes a two-bay vehicle service garage, equipment storage, offices, locker rooms, conference rooms, staff parking with EV chargers, and rooftop photovoltaic panels. This new facility enhances the transit experience for over 3.2 million annual bus riders at SFO by consolidating bus drivers, maintenance staff, and bus parking into a single location. The project also provides infrastructure to accommodate future electric buses. Swinerton self-performed demolition, concrete work, millwork, drywall, doors, frames and hardware installation, and final cleanup.

Targeting LEED Gold Certification,? mass timber, glulam, cross-laminated timber (CLT)
Swinerton provided general contracting services for the new community center called ‘The Hub’ in the heart of the redeveloped Sunnydale HOPE SF neighborhood. The facility is part of the new campus, which supports community connection and serves as the new gateway into McLaren Park.
The new 30,000-square-foot, two-story center features mass timber. It includes a teaching kitchen, study areas, a recording studio, and a mix of spaces to accommodate a full slate of social events, workshops, and classes. It serves as a living room for neighbors to meet and connect. The building has new facilities for the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco and Wu Yee Children’s Services—it significantly expands their capacity to provide top-tier childcare and programming for neighborhood youth.
CLT and glulam were chosen to ensure a warm and inviting community space and LEED Gold certification based on biophilic, sustainable, structural, and aesthetic qualities. The exposed wood structure is a simple scheme that leverages mass timber’s increased construction speed and decreased waste. Mass timber brace frames are showcased in key locations throughout the design via framed, glazed openings. These brace frames allow for a more open exterior skin with more access to daylight and views. The mass timber beams and girders are exposed and visible at locations where programming requires long spans to demonstrate their structural capabilities. This new hub features the possibilities of mass timber construction and the importance of environmental responsibility, and it provides a beautiful gathering space for the community.

Located in San Francisco’s South of Market (SoMa) District, 415 Natoma is a 25-story office tower and is one of three parcels of Brookfield’s four-acre Fifth & Mission (5M) development. 415 Natoma is on a tight site and construction was orchestrated alongside a busy intersection of one-way side streets around a historic 110-year-old structure, all while coordinating with the build and renovation of two other 5M projects.
This 640,000-square-foot, LEED Gold certified building includes two levels of below-grade parking, multiple ground-level retail spaces, exterior amenity decks, and office space. It also has an expansive terrace on level 25 overlooking the San Francisco skyline.
This project has more than 27,000 square feet of outdoor terraces, a half-acre of open space, and state-of-the-art mechanical and ventilation systems for 666,000-square feet of office space. The MEP system includes a full HVAC system including two Dedicated Outside Air System (DOAS) AHUs, three single cell cooling towers, two high temperature?chillers and one low temp chiller (for tempering outside air), and three condensing heating hot water boilers. This provides?the option to use Water Source Heat Pumps (WSHP), chilled water FCUs, and HHW reheat or VRF options for sensible cooling and heating. 415 Natoma also includes a grey water system that reclaims the water from the sinks and showers along with rainwater to use for water closets, urinals, and irrigation, and a 1250 KW emergency generator that supplies the building with up to eight hours of emergency power. The building consists of 16 elevators, 6 of which have their hoistways separated by a rated wall. The core for the passenger elevators is an atypical elevator core which abuts the exterior curtain wall which required close coordination with the shaft walls and curtain wall system.

Structural Modifications, Retail, Vendor Build-Out
Swinerton refurbished and seismically upgraded Macy’s Union Square department store in San Francisco during a three-year, multi-phased schedule.
The first phase was the consolidation of the Men’s Store into the main building at Stockton and O’Farrell Street. This phased remodel affected various floors of the store from the lower level all the way up to the 8th floor. Scope of work consisted of electrical (new lighting), HVAC, plumbing, painting, flooring (carpet, tile, wood flooring), and the build-out of 75 vendor shops.
The second phase was the Geary Street shops renovation that consisted of structural modifications to the second floor of the Geary Street storefront location. Scope of work included lowering the slab on either side of the main Geary Street entrance to bring it to the same level as Geary Street. The existing second floor slab was dropped approximately 8-10 feet to street level to create three new retail spaces facing Union Square. The west side was built with structural steel, and the east side was built on poured-in-place concrete with shotcrete walls.
