San Francisco

For more than 25 years, the Firm has been a leader in planning, zoning and entitlement practice in the City. From the live-work loft battles of the 1990s to the latest area plan area, Reuben & Junius and Rose has been at the center of land-use practice in San Francisco.

One of the things that makes our San Francisco land-use practice unique is our ability to handle virtually any size matter from the smallest to the largest. This broad spectrum of work allows the firms land-use attorneys to stay up to the minute with the latest legal and political developments in San Francisco. Whether it be a single­ family home in the Richmond district or a 700 foot office tower downtown, our land use experts handle it all.

The firm has been instrumental in guiding its clients through a number of the City’s major rezoning efforts over the last 20 years, starting with the Rincon Hill Plan, the Market Octavia Plan, the Eastern Neighborhood plan, the Transit Center District Plan, and finally the recently adopted Central Soma Plan.

Central soma, a plan eight years in the making, is focused around a number of key sites. The firm is proud to be representing virtually every key site owner/developer within the plan area. Clients include Tishman-Speyer, Kilroy group, TMG, Alexandria real estate, and Boston Properties.
