*SOLD OUT* Exclusive NEXT Tour: Downtown San Francisco Office Reimagination and the Flight to Quality
8:30 AM - 2:00 PM PST | *SEPARATELY TICKETED EVENT

Join NEXT for a walking tour of three class A office properties in Downtown San Francisco that have or are undergoing major reimaginations to attract and maintain tenants, including the Transamerica Pyramid (SHVO), 88 Spear Street (Presidio Bay Ventures), and 201 Spear Street (Strada Investment Group). Attendees will have access to an inside look at these three properties’ amenity updates, building improvements, and strategies to attract tenants in response to an over saturated market with an over 35 percent vacancy rate in first quarter 2025, compared to a pre-pandemic record low 4.7 percent vacancy rate in second quarter 2019. The tour wraps up with a networking lunch.

Please note: This is a walking tour that meets off-site at 201 Spear Street, a portion requires hard hats, and all attendees must execute a release of liability to participate in the tour in advance (no exceptions). The tour is approximately 1.3 miles from start to lunch; 2.2 miles from start to all stops and back to the Moscone Center from lunch.
