Transbay Jury Picks a Favorite Design for Tower and Terminal Buildings

The panel of experts assembled to recommend a design for the new Transbay Terminal has made it's choice for the design of the new landmark tower and replacement of the original terminal building, an outdated and dilapidated concrete box from the 1930's.
The jury selected the Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects proposal, with a tower that gently tapers inward as it goes up, and tops the long, low terminal building in downtown with a 5.4 acre park. I was partial to the Rogers Stirk Harbour from what I'd seen and read, but not in any way disappointed by the recommendation, which will now go to the Transbay Joint Power Authority for their decision.
