Pacific Gate by Bosa is First Super Prime Residential Building to Arrive in Downtown San Diego

Kohn Pedersen Fox and Hirsch Bedner Associates Lead Team Creating
Iconic Architectural, Exquisite Interior Design and Skyline-Changing
Residences in ‘America’s Finest City’

SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–“Cities magnify humanity’s strengths.” They spur innovation by
facilitating face-to-face interaction, they attract talent and sharpen
it through competition, they encourage entrepreneurship, and they allow
for social and economic mobility,” according to Edward Glaeser,
Professor of Economics at Harvard University.

An exciting transformation is taking place in Downtown San Diego, the
four-square-mile city dubbed “America’s finest city.” The development of
new parks, hotels, retail space and cultural offerings support increased
growth in the job market and more residents, in part through the
visionary North Embarcadero Esplanade Plan and Waterfront Park. This
area is emerging on the world stage as a prime example of the urbanism
movement nationwide.

In one of the boldest architectural statements Downtown San Diego has
ever seen Bosa
Development, the foremost leader in superior quality, luxury,
design-focused, waterfront residential living, unveiled new details and
renderings for Pacific Gate, its latest luxury residential building
located at the emerging gateway area called the Waterfront.

Pacific Gate, which just opened for preview, will be 41 stories tall and
will contain 215 two and three- bedroom residences ranging in size from
1,240 to 2,608 square feet. Two-bedroom residences are priced from $1.4
million and three-bedroom Estates are priced from $2.9 million. The
building’s estimated completion is scheduled for late 2017.

Nat Bosa, president, states, “My enthusiasm for San Diego and its
potential to be a true world-class city keeps getting stronger since I
first started acquiring land nearly 20 years ago. I want to give San
Diego some of the best buildings on the West Coast and I intend to do
that. Cities on the international stage offer beauty, culture, and an
authentic lifestyle combined with a thriving business sector. These
cities are further distinguished by Super Prime residential real estate,
which is defined by location, breathtaking views, iconic architecture,
exquisite interior design, and exceptional amenities and services.”

Pacific Gate’s architecture and design are unparalleled in Downtown San
Diego. The beautiful oval glass residential tower is designed by
renowned New York-based architects Kohn Pedersen Fox, in collaboration
with Chris Dikeakos Architects, who created a landmark design that will
evolve the San Diego skyline and represents the future of the city.

The building comprises two-nested curved glass towers that will rise as
a single column from a three-story ground floor retail podium on the
north and west sides of the tower. Because of the building’s curves and
exterior glass, Pacific Gate will offer a different viewing experience
depending on the vantage point of the viewer, mirroring the fluidity and
transformation of the sea. The result is an elegant sculptural form with
a multi-dimensional effect that blends form and functionalism.

Residents will enjoy luxurious, custom-designed public spaces and
residences that seamlessly marry contemporary design using a blend of
craftsmanship, natural materials and technologically forward techniques
and materials — evoking the coastal vibe, all enveloped in the form and
flow of the building.

Pacific Gate’s public spaces capture the feeling of coastal calm and
sublime luxury. From white terrazzo floors, speckled with gray and
black, and inlaid with brass rings in the lobby, to custom-designed
walnut walls and chairs in “niches” on every floor, and the corridors
using custom-designed wool carpet, each component of the building’s
interior is unique and cannot be purchased “off the shelf.”

The distinct architectural design, details and lighting of the public
spaces also is applied to the residences, bringing the warmth from the
sun, sea and sand indoors. Each residence features expansive windows,
bright open layouts and spacious master bathrooms. The residences will
feature HBA custom-designed kitchens featuring cabinets with grain
matched cathedral veneer hewn from single lengths of wood, custom
kitchen hardware by HBA, quartz counter tops and state-of-the-art
appliances from Wolf, Sub-Zero and Miele. Spacious master bathrooms with
polished stone floors and stone mosaic walls feature an invigorating
chrome Graff immersion shower system with rain and hand showers. The
modernist-style dual vanity has a honed stone slab vanity countertop.
Technology, from Everpure water filtration system to Smart Home allows
residents to automate climate, lighting and window treatments through
their phone or tablet and produce an unequaled experience in one of the
world’s most sought after coastlines.

Pacific Gate residents will also have access to amenities and services
frequently available at luxury hotels and resorts, including access to
Residents Only Guest Suite, Chef Concierge, Private Luxury Car Fleet and
Private Boat Share.
