DBI holds 60 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 60. 4 of them are nominal $1 street-space or sidewalk permits. 13 expired or cancelled permits are not shown. A design of 1960 is recorded at this address; the assessor dates the building on this parcel to 2019, so the building described may not be the one standing here.
