DBI holds 1,831 permits for this parcel, most of them tenant improvements on individual floors. The timeline shows the 24 largest by stated cost, plus the earliest on file; the DBI query in the sources below returns all 1,831. 2 of them are nominal $1 street-space or sidewalk permits. 1 expired permit is not shown. A citywide context statement dates a building at this address by Welton Becket to 1950; the assessor's roll dates the structure on this parcel to 1988. Whether the building described still stands here is unsettled. The center's environmental reports disagree on dates: the 1976 draft dates the original building and the adjacent Stonestown Market to 1952, while the 1979 amendment says the shopping center opened in 1950. The environmental reports treat the shopping center as one site across assessor blocks 7295 and 7296; this parcel is on block 7295.
