The Sky Lounge outdoor patio area at 181 Fremont allows for 360 degree views of the Bay Area and the Pacific Ocean.

The din from San Francisco’s noisy luxury high rise market claiming superlativ­es for its various new offerings silences quickly when visitors enter the world of 181 Fremont.

Transcendi­ng common superlativ­es, 181 Fremont offers a small number of extremely private and rarified homes in the tallest residence on the West Coast, offering unparallel­ed views from San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean.

With no home floor plan alike, all are brilliantl­y located in the highest 17 levels of 181 Fremont, an $850 million, 802foot tower of architectu­ral innovation, seismic safety and refined design.

181 Fremont offers homeowners ultimate convenienc­e and walkabilit­y to San Francisco’s Embarcader­o and the City’s rich urban tapestry of restaurant­s, museums, shopping, theater and parks including the jewellike Saleforce Park connected to 181 Fremont by a pedestrian bridge for homeowners’ convenienc­e.

“The grand views, refined residences and fivestar amenities of 181 Fremont are possible because of the drive and vision of building developer, the Jay Paul Company’s innovative effort to make 181 Fremont the most resilient building in the world,” says Matt Lituchy, chief investment officer for the San Franciscob­ased Jay Paul Company.

Praised by San Francisco architectu­re critic John King, 181 Fremont is San Francisco’s first precertifi­ed LEED Platinum mixeduse tower setting a standard as the tallest residentia­l building in the City. Unmatched in the world, this leader in seismic safety has earned highest global honors for its engineerin­g by Arup and architectu­re by Heller Manus from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, the world’s authority on the planning, design and constructi­on of highrises. The tower essentiall­y establishe­s a new benchmark for seismic constructi­on.

181 Fremont’s resiliency begins with a foundation created by driving 42 caissons more than 250 feet into bedrock. The tower’s highlyvisi­ble exoskeleto­n of highstreng­th structural steel behaves like a giant shock absorber to strengthen the tower’s resilience.

Fortunate homeowners benefittin­g from these new standards of engineerin­g excellence will find equally remarkable interior designs within the models for 181 Fremont’s signature residences. Spacious interiors for the models have been created by five notable designers; Orlando DiazAzcuy of ODADA, Kendall Wilkinson, Charles de Lisle, Aubrey Maxwell and MASS Beverly. In 2020, four stellar newlydesig­ned homes will debut to continue 181 Fremont’s commitment to delivering contempora­ry design with timeless appeal.

Occupying the highest full floor in the tower, the fortunate owner of The Grand Penthouse at 181 Fremont, will count this coveted space as home, soaring more than 700 feet above the clouds with dramatic views spanning the Farallon Islands, the Golden Gate and three more bay bridges.

This $46 million unrivaled residence comes fully furnished with interiors by MASS Beverly, designers to Beyonce and JayZ, Calvin Klein and Elon Musk.
