612 Howard Street is conveniently located between Second and New Montgomery Streets in the SOMA district of San Francisco.

Will Lawrence, Co-Founder and CEO of Greenlite AI said, “We needed office space that could handle our growth trajectory, and 612 Howard delivers exactly that. The building itself has a modern industrial yet clean aesthetic that aligns perfectly with our company culture -- sophisticated, collaborative, and accessible. The location puts us right in the heart of downtown, which is where the action is. San Francisco’s comeback is real, and we're seeing it firsthand: this area is central and lively,” he added.

The building at 612 Howard was constructed in 1907 and has individual floor plates of approximately 10,000 sq feet each with their original massive redwood beams and all-hardwood floors. The fully renovated building is located between Second Street and New Montgomery, is only 2 blocks from Moscone Center, and offers easy access to Bart, Muni, CalTrain, and Highways 101 and 280. Space is available on flexible multi-year terms.

Greenlite AI, which recently closed a $15 million Series A led by venture firm Greylock, is hiring aggressively in every department to support a waitlist of customers looking to automate and improve their financial compliance workflows. Lawrence added, “As an AI company building cutting-edge services for our customers, Greenlite wanted to be in an area that's attracting other forward-thinking companies. We love being steps away from Downtown First Thursdays on 2nd and Howard. The monthly event gathers a mix of local businesses, food, and community and is perfect for team building.”
