Some may turn to pals to help, others may call a mechanic, but a lucky few may have a partner who is an expert in all things vehicles.

Now I’d like to see Benioff explore ways to make San Francisco’s sagging Financial District into a robust mixed-use neighborhood — starting with Salesforce West, the 43-story office tower that Salesforce owns at 50 Fremont St., a half-empty monolith from early 1985 that could become a test lab for turning old towers into new strongholds of urban life. This may sound presumptuous, but Benioff hasn’t been shy in airing his concerns about the commercial heart of the city where he was born, and where his company occupies three towers at Fremont and Mission streets. “We’ve a very homogeneous downtown. You have to rebalance,” Benioff … [Read more...] about This half-empty office tower could help transform downtown San Francisco
