Cushman & Wakefield has been retained to sell the historic San Francisco Art Institute campus at 800 Chestnut Street in one of the city's largest offerings of private property for several years.
The property includes education structures that are designated designated as 'City Landmark #85' and an original 1931 Diego Rivera mural.
Cushman & Wakefield Executive managing director Tom Christian and associate vice-president Tim Garlick who is based in the firm's San Francisco office, are leading the property marketing and sales effort.
Built to a design by architects Blakewell and Brown in 1926, the original structure features an iconic bell tower, interior courtyard, Anne Bremer library, classrooms, galleries, and offices.
[A] very special landmark property
Cushman & Wakefield Executive managing director Tom Christian and associate vice-president Tim Garlick who is based in the firm's San Francisco office, are leading the property marketing and sales effort.
The buildings occupy a site totaling just under 1.75 acres.
Christian describes the art institute as "a very special landmark property" and believes it will be particularly suited to another cultural or educational institution, including a museum, gallery, university campus or, indeed, any organization that is on an "innovative" mission.
