The original plans from Pelli Clark Pelli Architects called for a 1,200-foot (370 m) tower as the main tower and a massive three-block-long Transbay Center.

This past week I've spent every night leaving the Gateway Theatre in downtown SF around 10:30pm. It's been super hot most of the week and thus pretty fog-free at night, and the Bay has been lit up by the full moon. The lunar illumination has been great for aiding multiple exposures for HDR compositions, so I've been stopping on the way back across the bridge to shoot from different locations. The fog finally started rolling in yesterday, but downtown is pretty good at providing its own light. (JPOD 230) #salesforcetower #downtownsanfrancisco #sanfrancisco #hdrphotography #hdr #skyscraper

I made this photo of the Salesforce building from the front stairs of our home in San Francisco's Excelsior District – a distance of about five miles. The sunlight reflecting off the building on the upper floors caught my attention. Unfortunately the glare off the buildng was much more interesting to the naked eye than in this digital capture of the moment. I shot this using the telephoto capabilities of my Canon Powershot SX50.

At 1,070 feet, the Salesforce Tower reduces the 853-feet Transamerica Pyramid to a background architectural exclamation point.
This is a variation of the prior video. It was shot just after sunset as a time lapse sequence. It was tricky to block the internal reflections. Black fabric and gaffer tape were needed.
