Exclusive Look: 41 Tehama Hits Construction Milestones

Construction at SoMa's 41 Tehama is underway, with the project hitting several milestones in recent days. Bisnow brought you the rendering back in September and now has an exclusive look at the progress being made on the 389k SF multifamily building.
