2. New Brokerage Hired For Tech Titans

JLL is out and Cresa is in for two high-profile tech companies in S.F.: Twitter and FitBit (above, Tory Burch's latest design for the fitness tracker).

The company, which helps power online and mobile payments systems for Apple, Twitter and Alibaba, is HQ'ed at 18th and Folsom (above) and had an active requirement for 300k SF just last fall.
