Automotive-related industries blossomed in the 1920s, with automakers and their parts collaborators building new facilities throughout CA. B.F. Goodrich Company, the Akron, OH-based tire giant, had established offices in San Francisco, CA, by at least 1912.

Alterations transformed this commercial warehouse building into 24 loft condominiums. A real estate firm specializing in South of Market Street properties in San Francisco, CA, noted of the Goodrich Building: "As part of the conversion, the original Art Deco lobby was restored as were the industrial windows and mushroom capped concrete pillars." (See Zephyr SOMA, SOMA and South Beach Buildings,Accessed 01/26/2012.) Following this conversion, parking was located on lower floors, while the roof was refashioned into a terrace.
