OAKLAND’S TALLEST OFFICE TOWER FORMALLY UNVEILED

Plans were unveiled on June 17 for the 28-story Kaiser Permanente Thrive Center, which, at 1.6 million ft2, will be larger than San Francisco's Salesforce Tower and the tallest office tower in Oakland, California, ABC7 News is among outlets to report. To include community space, parking and health care clinics, the tower at 2100 Telegraph Avenue downtown will serve as headquarters for Oakland-based healthcare company Kaiser Permanente. During a ceremony attended by Kaiser Permanente CEO Bernard Tyson and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, it was observed Kaiser received no tax incentives for the tower, which Schaaf said promises to be a community asset. Completion is anticipated in 2023.
