San Francisco, CA

San Francisco's Mission Rock development is set to become a hotspot for food enthusiasts. As highlighted in a recent article from The Real Deal, Arsicault, renowned for its flaky pastries and accolades like Bon Appetit’s “Best New Bakery” prize in 2016, is opening its third location at Mission Rock. Armando Lacayo, the owner, envisions this new location as "a laboratory for new products," signaling exciting times ahead for pastry aficionados.

Local Favorites Join the Lineup

The Mission Rock project, a collaboration between the San Francisco Giants, Tishman Speyer, and the Port of San Francisco, has announced its first wave of retailers, with doors set to open in early 2024:

  • Ike’s Love & Sandwiches: This San Francisco-born eatery, which has garnered a dedicated following, will open its 100th location at Mission Rock.
  • Proper Food: A quick grab-and-go spot known for its sandwiches, soups, and salads, will set up shop at the base of the Visa building.
  • Blades Co. Barbershop: This barbershop, which began its journey in the North Financial District in 2015, will open its third branch at Mission Rock.
  • LuxFit: Previously an outdoor gym, LuxFit will establish its first brick-and-mortar location at Mission Rock, offering a range of fitness classes and wellness events.

A Bay Area-Centric Strategy

Maggie Kadin, Tishman Speyer Managing Director, emphasized a Bay Area-centric approach for the first group of retailers at Mission Rock. The aim is to foster a vibrant community and activate the Mission Rock neighborhood. With the development's first apartment building, The Canyon, already open and more constructions underway, the future looks promising for this waterfront location.

A Win-Win for Retailers and the Community

While specific incentives for these businesses remain under wraps, the developers have committed to structures ensuring mutual success. The proximity to the San Francisco Giants and the technical expertise from Tishman Speyer are just a few perks for these retailers. As the Giants and Mission Rock retailers foster a growing relationship, we can expect a dynamic synergy between them.

What's Next for Mission Rock?

With more retail news on the horizon, including potential park-front restaurants, Mission Rock is shaping up to be a bustling hub for residents and visitors alike.

We can’t say enough about what an amazing agent Jerry is! In the roughest economic time during a pandemic he managed to sell our condo in record time (7 days to be exact) with an over asking offer. He made the entire process seamless and actually enjoyable. Professional, knowledgeable, and always responsive are just a few ways to describe Jerry! Hands down the best agent in the game!

Jerry and I first made contact on Sep 16, 2021 through email. I was ready to purchase a home, seriously this time. I was new to San Francisco so had no idea where i wanted to live. I was hoping to get an experienced real estate agent to show me the ins and outs. I was also a bit anxious because i kept hearing of the crazy bidding wars. I decided to Airbnb in different areas to figure out which area i like. And also took Jerry's recommendation of which area to try. After visiting 3 different houses (in different areas), I realized i really liked the Noe Valley/Glen Park area and decided it was a good idea to focus on that area. I found a house I really liked that I thought might be out of reach that I had visited myself. A few days later, Jerry visited too and was able to convince me that it was worth the shot. So I made an offer, I knew i had to be competitive as this house would get many offers. I ended up winning after a counteroffer! Jerry's experience was key in helping me make the optimal bid. The house was in escrow on Sep 30, 2021. It was a two week process, and my very first bid on a house (in a very competitive area). I feel like Jerry saved me a lot of time and effort.

I highly recommend Jerry Rice Jr. I credit Jerry with a smooth, stress-free home-buying experience during the pandemic. He is savvy, professional, personable and knows the SF Bay Area market inside and out. He was able to efficiently assist us with our 1031 Property Exchange, with all of the nerve wracking time constraints. There were many factors to consider searching for a property during the pandemic, but Jerry made it a comfortable and seamless process. Jerry went the extra mile to explain the contracts, and to make sure we didn’t feel rushed. We couldn’t have done this without Jerry! He was amazing in a high pressure situation, constantly in touch via phone and text nights and weekends. Whether you are buying, selling, or involved with a 1031 Exchange, we highly recommend Jerry Rice, Jr. for your real estate needs.

Jerry helped my wife and I purchase our first home in Oakland. Jerry was an excellent partner throughout the entire process. He was always responsive, gave honest feedback, and networked well with the sellers agents, which was a differentiator when bidding against competing offers. Further, in the middle of our housing search, the markets started to turn funky. Jerry helped us navigate the changing markets with confidence, and ultimately, thanks to his guidance, we secured our dream home. Despite the craziness, the end-to-end process was about as painless as buying a home in the SF bay area could be. Whether a first-time buyer, new to the Bay Area or experienced home-owner, I highly recommend working with Jerry.
