Description: GOLDEN GATEWAY REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT : Eichler Homes Inc. - Developer; Dinwiddie Construction Co. - Associate; Anshen & Allen - Architects. Undated but known to be 1960. Large format cloth covered stiff boards, 13x21 inches, 21 heavy stock leaves (i.e. 42 pages). The rectos are all illustrations, many are photographs of architectural models and drawings showing how the proposed project would look when completed. Text on facing pages describes the illustrations. The last page has the printed signatures of Joseph L. Eichler (Eichler Homes), Curtis E. Smith Jr. (Dinwiddie Construction), and "Anshen & Allen" signed by either Robert Anshen or Steve Allen. Condition: Some of the paper pastedown on the outer corner area of both the front and rear cover has peeled away exposing the boards beneath, otherwise in very good condition, bright, clean, clear and unmarked. SCARCE, this is the only copy I have ever seen. An important historic look at the dramatic changes in the San Francisco skyline that started taking place in the 1960s. About The Golden Gateway (from LocalWiki): ******The Golden Gateway was one of the first projects of the SF Redevelopment Agency. The area that is now the Golden Gateway used to be an Italian neighborhood called Produce Market. The Redevelopment Agency designated the area blighted and after a long fight with business owners in the area, it was demolished and replaced by Golden Gateway and One Maritime Plaza (both part of the Golden Gateway Redevelopment Project).******
