Overview
The building is located on the corner of Laurel and Cherry Street. The City has permanently closed this section of the street to vehicular traffic and has a vision to transform the 700 block of Laurel Street into a public plaza focused on a more pedestrian-friendly downtown environment.
For tenants and buyers, the asset supports flexible office demand with multiple existing units on the second floor, while the ground level provides storefront-style frontage for retail-oriented uses and customer-facing service businesses. The broader San Carlos context includes proximity between the San Francisco and San Jose economic hubs and a regional concentration of employers across technology, finance, law, and health-related industries.
