Tall Poppy Syndrome Redux: Questions over future of SF Flower Mart continue



The new Flower Mart will be slightly downsized, going from 135,000 square feet to 115,000 square feet, with 10,000 square feet of retail. The underground Flower Mart will have a 24-foot-high ceiling, roof skylight and mezzanine offices. A retail space at a plaza below the towers will also have room for retail flower vendors, according to renderings released Wednesday. Bob Otsuka, executive vice president and general manager of the California Flower Mart, said the upgrades are much-needed. 

"With an updated, more efficient facility, we will be able to stay competitive in our conveniently-located market and service our customer base," he said.
