Databricks doubles SF footprint

Databricks leased roughly 90,000 sq ft at 1 Sansome, effectively doubling its San Francisco office presence — a major local expansion announced this week. The move signals growing local engineering teams and on‑prem/hybrid projects in downtown SF as companies chase production‑scale agentic AI deployments. (sfchronicle.com)

Databricks’ downtown San Francisco footprint now totals roughly 240,000 square feet after the company added about 90,000 square feet at One Sansome on top of an earlier 150,000‑square‑foot commitment.

(connectcre.com) (connectcre.com) One Sansome is a roughly 733,900‑square‑foot, 41‑story Financial District tower, and CoStar reports Databricks will be the building’s largest tenant once the moves are complete.
