Showplace East is a core design building in the San Francisco Design District - one of the City's fastest evolving neighborhoods. Built in 1941 as an airplane factory, since 2002 Showplace East showrooms serve as a destination for architects and designers in the home furnishings trade. The building maintains its' industrial character with original steel trusses and cement floors, softened by organic details to include lush exterior and interior plantings with a 20 foot high vaulted common area atrium flush with skylights. A garden restaurant with al fresco dining completes the experience. This impeccably maintained property is in close proximity to the vibrant bio/tech hub, newly minted residential developments, the Mission Bay Medical Campus and Chase Center.
