Document Description
The project site is presently developed with an existing 21,263-square-foot, 35-foot-tall (to the top of the roof ridgeline), three-story United Irish Cultural Center (Irish Center) building, which was constructed in 1975 and covers approximately 70 percent of the parcel. The Irish Center is a nonprofit corporation that provides various aspects of Irish culture, San Francisco Irish history, and event space to the local community. The project would demolish the existing building and construct a new 91-foot-tall, six-story-over-two basement-levels building containing approximately 129,540-gross-square-feet of mixed-use cultural/institutional/educational uses with office, restaurant, recreational/fitness facilities, and event space. Once constructed, the Irish Center would continue to host a range of events in the proposed three larger event rooms and in smaller rooms throughout the building. In general, future event types and programming would be similar to those currently held at the existing facility, although events would be held more frequently. To be able to accommodate large events, the new structure would increase capacity of the existing event spaces by a total of approximately 227 people in a theater seating configuration (from 690 people to 917 people), and by 98 people in a table seating configuration (from 358 people to 456 people). The project would provide passenger loading on 45th Avenue and Wawona Street. The proposed construction is estimated to last approximately 20 months, with a total volume excavated of 19,860 cubic yards to a maximum depth of approximately 52 feet.
