San Francisco’s Transamerica Pyramid officially reopened Thursday morning, days before the public reopening of its adjoining park.
The reimagined building's top levels have been transformed into working spaces, a lounge, and a fitness facility exclusively for tenants.
The Transamerica Redwood Park, which has been closed since the pandemic, will reopen to all. When the park was unveiled in 1972, the trees were about 16 to 18 feet tall. Now they’re about 150 feet tall.
"It's the most iconic building in the Bay Area, probably the most iconic building on the West Coast, being photographed everywhere," said Michael Shvo, the building's owner. "But, people never come here. Today is the day we open this place to the public for the people to come."
The formal reopening occurred at 9 a.m. A pyramid of light and sound show kicks off at 7 p.m. and will last until 11 p.m.
