Tuesday, November 11, 2025


Overview

Downtown San Francisco is evolving, and understanding that transformation begins with reliable, transparent data. The Downtown SF Partnership (DSFP) Quarterly Market Report provides a clear, data-informed view of the trends shaping the Financial District and Jackson Square.

Whether you’re a ground-floor business, property owner, policymaker, investor, or resident, the report offers insight into the metrics influencing downtown’s continued recovery and growth. From foot traffic and leasing activity to economic indicators and event data, this report helps stakeholders know the facts behind downtown’s transformation.



What is the Quarterly Market Report?

The Quarterly Market Report is DSFP’s new tool for understanding the health and progress of San Francisco’s urban core. Each edition delivers key data on visitation, business activity, office and retail performance, and district events, providing a quarterly snapshot of how downtown is changing.

While DSFP’s monthly dashboards track short-term shifts, the Quarterly Market Report goes further- connecting the dots between datasets to highlight emerging trends and explain the “why” behind the numbers. This report is designed to document progress over time, revealing the momentum and milestones driving downtown’s recovery.
