Southline is an innovative, 31-acre purpose-built science and technology development in South San Francisco, conveniently located directly adjacent to BART and within walking distance to Caltrain. The campus will feature 2.8 million square feet of Class A office and life science space, offering an authentic work-life experience in one of the most exciting developing neighborhoods in the Bay Area.
With modern innovation in mind, Southline offers expansive, flexible floor plates ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 square feet of office space. Up to 65,000 square feet is dedicated to life science use. Office ceiling heights of 16 feet on the ground floor and 14 feet on the upper levels provide a spacious, open feel. Life science areas feature 16 to 18 feet of clearance, accommodating high-capacity storage and specialized equipment. Generous 30- to 33-foot column spacing, a strong live load capacity of approximately 125 pounds per square foot, and 8,000 MIPs ensure the project is equipped to support even the most demanding operations.
Designed for innovation, inside out, Southline has curated amenities, restaurants, and retail that give big ideas space to grow, offering structure for deep thinking and space for spontaneity. The mass timber dedicated amenity building brings to the campus a fitness and wellness center, a coffee bar and grab-n-go food options, a conference center, outdoor seating areas, a well-appointed walking trail, a fruit and veggie garden, a campus Caltrain shuttle, a designated rideshare area, and a bike barn with a repair desk. A beer garden, fire pits, food truck court, outdoor collaboration areas, games and activities, and the Southline Commons (a 2-acre open space) are included in Phase 2, coming soon.
Situated at the intersection of 101, 380, and 280, where BART and Caltrain converge and just minutes from San Francisco International Airport (SFO), the entire Bay Area is as accessible as it has ever been at Southline. Over 2,300 housing units are within a short walk of this project. All this and more provides the opportunity to recruit and retain from everywhere.
Southline is in the center of Lindenville, a burgeoning, mixed-use neighborhood that soon will become an employment hub and the cultural heart of South San Francisco. In addition, it is across the street from a planned new 400,000 square foot retail village at Tanforan, including restaurants, cafes, Target, and a cinema. This growing area will offer a walkable live/work community, creating opportunities to shape South San Francisco's next chapter.
South San Francisco has a rich history of pioneering industry and seamlessly bridges the innovative spirit of San Francisco with the technological prowess of Silicon Valley. At Southline, inspiration is tradition, and the Industrial City will give birth to the next phase of creative thinkers, disruptors, and pioneers fueled by the energy of its surroundings.
