The former Pacific Gas & Electric Building is a steel frame 150 m (490 ft) skyscraper located at 77 Beale Street (at Mission) in the financial district of San Francisco, California. Completed in 1971, the 34 story building was the headquarters for Pacific Gas and Electric Company, the main utility provider for Northern California and parts of Southern California, and has been host to a nesting pair of peregrine falcons since 1987.

History

In June 2020, Pacific Gas & Electric announced that it plans to move its headquarters to the Kaiser Center in Oakland. The move will happen in phases, starting in 2022 and completing by 2026.

In May 2021, Hines agreed to purchase the building for US$800 million. They proposed its address to be 200 Mission Street (instead of 77 Beale Street).
