SAN FRANCISCO — Kilroy Realty Corp. (NYSE: KRC) has agreed to sell The Exchange on Sixteenth, a 750,000-square-foot office campus located at 1800 Owens St. in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood. The buyer was not disclosed, but the San Francisco Chronicle reported it was KKR, a private equity firm based in New York. The agreed purchase price is a little more than $1 billion, equating to approximately $1,440 per square foot. Kilroy Realty says this is the highest per-square-foot sales price for a “major property” in the history of San Francisco’s commercial real estate market. The Chronicle reports the sale represents the second largest transaction for a single property in the city’s history. “This transaction demonstrates that quality assets in quality locations remain highly attractive to buyers, and in this case generated a record price,” says John Kilroy, chairman and CEO of Kilroy Realty. Software storage giant Dropbox Inc. (NASDAQ: DBX) signed a 15-year lease for its corporate headquarters at the campus in 2017. The San Francisco Business Times reported last summer that the company listed 270,000 square feet of its space at the campus for sublease as the COVID-19 pandemic caused most of its staff to work remotely.
