Last Piece of the Yerba Buena Puzzle: Mexican Museum and 706 Mission Street

© 2014 Miriam Montesinos, Pelosi Law Group and Donna Schumacher, Donna Schumacher Architecture In 1966, the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency (SFRA) and the Board of Supervisors designated the neighborhood as an urban renewal target, a new Arts District that would enliven a key piece of urban real es- tate while protecting the cultural diversity of a world-class city.

Since that time, Yerba Buena Gardens has made incremen- tal yet dramatic changes, and has indeed emerged as a vi- brant cultural center for San Francisco. The opening of the Moscone Convention Center (1981), the creation of Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (1993), the relocation of SFMOMA to the neighborhood (1995) and the addition of The Contem- porary Jewish Museum (2005), among other notable develop- ments, have all contributed to a neighborhood renaissance. Moreover, with the numerous galleries, shopping areas, the- aters, high-end hotels and residential towers that have fol- lowed the area has become one of the most dynamic and bustling in San Francisco for live, work, or play.

The last major piece of the cultural puzzle is The Mexican Mu- seum, which was identified as a new addition to the area in1993. That’s when the Redevelopment Agency designated property adjacent to 706 Mission Street for the museum’s new home.

The Mexican Museum, initially located in the heart of San Fran- cisco’s Mission District, was founded in 1975 by local resident and artist Peter Rodríguez. The museum was the realization of Rodríguez’s vision that an institution be created in the United States to exhibit the aesthetic expression of the Mexican and Mexican-American -- later expanded to reflect the evolving scope of the Mexican, Chicano and broader Latino experience.

In 1982, The Mexican Museum moved to Cen- ter in the Marina District, where it currently has a permanent collection of over 15,500 art objects. This spectacular collec- tion is unique in the nation and includes Pre-Hispanic, Co- lonial, Popular, Modern and Contemporary Mexican, Mexi- can-American, Latin American, Latino, and Chicano art. The museum has since become affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution, the nation’s largest museum network. historically important Aronson Building at 706 Mission Street, immediately adjacent to the museum site.

© 2014 Tessa Wilcox and Christine Sanford, Artsource Consulting Exposure to art at work has shown to encourage creativity and productivity, promote morale and open dialogue in the workplace. Although art plays an important role in sparking creativity in our society, few companies realize the potential of a uniquely tailored art program to enhance their goals as a business.

A study conducted by the Business Committee for the Arts Inc. (BCA), a non-profit founded by David Rockefeller to link art and business, and the International Association of Professional Art Advisors (IAPAA), surveyed 800 employees from 32 companies operating in the US. The study found that the overwhelming majority of employees agree that art reduces stress and encourages discussion and expression of opinions, with 94% of employees agreeing that art enhances the work environment. Furthermore, 73% of those surveyed said their view of the company would change negatively if the art in their workplace were removed.

In addition to enhancing the workplace for employees, the presence of art in a corporate space sets a tone that communicates the values of the ownership. This tone helps to convey a commitment to the arts community and to cultivating a creative workplace. Both public art and permanent collections help establish a company as a community participant and as a thought leader when it comes to creative workspace.

San Francisco has an international reputa- tion for its beauty as well as its fine cui- sine, so it comes as no surprise that there would be restaurants catering to a desire for both. The inclusion of fine art in the design of a restaurant interior engages the senses alike creating a memorable experience for the eyes and taste buds. From the more contemporary (Wexler’s at 568 Sacramento Street), to the whimsical (Grand Café at 501 Geary Street) and the historical (Pied Piper Bar at 2 New Mont- gomery Street), these three examples il- lustrate the varying ways that this combi- nation can create stunning results.

Pivotal Keystone to the 706 Mission Street Project Located at 706 Mission, the ARONSON BUILDING was con- structed in 1903 and survived the 1906 Earthquake and Fire. This San Francisco historic treasure was designed by archi- tects Hemenway & Miller in the “Chicago Style” and is there- fore listed as a Category 1 building in San Francisco.

Page & Turnbull is serving as preservation architect for the rehabilitation of the Aronson Building. Their scope included a rigorous entitlement process allowing for the removal of non-historic additions, new openings on the north façade, a new roof top garden, and the adjacent construction of a new tower. Their scope also included a Historic Structures Report. As part of the rehabilitation, Page & Turnbull will lead efforts to repair the façade which features decorative terra cotta, a sheet metal cornice, cast iron pilasters, and a Colusa sandstone cornice.

706 Mission will be home to The Mexican Museum on the retail level floors and will anchor the adjacent tower designed by Handel Architects and developed by Millennium Partners to the streetscape on Mission.

Architecture to create a space unique to their values, mission statement and com- munity. For the entry area, rather than the traditional reception desk, the visitor is greeted by an inviting collection of com- fortable seating indicative of a welcoming atmosphere of collaboration. The kitchen is located directly opposite this reception area to enable employees to grab a frothy cappuccino from the kitchen for newly arrived guests or long winded meetings. The main working space is separated only by sliding translucent walls, and as such is easily visible to workers in the primary space, known as the bullpen.

The space incorporates one of a kind, art- Photo description: “And My Room Still Rocked Like a Boat on the Sea (Caruso’s Dream)” by Brian Goggin and Dorka Keen, photograph by Michael Rauner ist designed elements emblematic of the Stearns Consulting mission. A custom designed glass coffee table with an inter- changeable district map of San Francisco is the focal point of the aforementioned re- ception area. Transforming from work (with strategic meetings with dry erase pens) to play (with green army men lined up in battle), the table is a memorable feature to visitors and employees alike. Surrounding the table, glass shelves display numerous awards acquired by the firm while a nearby wall is filled with brightly colored campaign slogans, both illustrating a pride in work and accomplishment. For the conference room, a large ten foot by five foot map was created by layering laser cut felt designs based on the Mission Creek Watershed, echoing the firms commitment to the en- vironment as well as buffering noise in the otherwise reverberant space.
