campbell and mcduffy found financing for the first building now known as five thomas millen circle. from the beginning it was our desire to change the visual entryway to the city with ample landscaping around the office buildings. i sought out the advice of a forester i knew to address the issue of softening the hard cuts on the upper hill and he planted native vegetation and 35 years later most but not all of the area is covered. by the mid 2000's, the market for office area in the area was beginning to move south. by 2005 the land use attorney and architect and i met with the director to discuss the possibility of changing the use from office to residential. they encouraged us to proceed. the community remains supportive of this change. i wanted to suppress all the planning decisions at executive park have been done in consultation with the neighborhoods. we will continue our legacy of community involvement throughout the building of the project. i am confident with the work already in progress, we will build this into a project to make up a san francisco san franciscoans proud. t
