Project Summary

With the renovation of 607 Front Street now complete, the Koret Foundation has a sleek headquarters building located in the Financial District just two blocks west of the Embarcadero waterfront. Nibbi’s scope of work on 607 Front Street included the historic renovation and seismic upgrade of a two-story brick building and basement built in 1906. Work included 100% demolition of the interior and adding an elevator, all new electrical, and all new HVAC/ plumbing/fire sprinkler systems. The project has high-end finishes, including glass-walled offices, sound masking, solid-wood flooring imported from Italy, marble accent walls and fireplaces. The project acheived LEED Silver certification.
