Westfield is investing $30 million in the Metreon’s makeover.
A new Dining Terrace will feature 470 interior seats behind three stories of glass facing Yerba Buena Gardens. Additional seats will be added along the exterior of Metreon. An active retail and dining promenade will be created along Mission and Fourth.
Street level and Dining Terrace food offerings will include: La Boulange Bakery; Best of Burger; So Green Yogurt; Chipotle; San Francisco Soup; Mixt Green’s; Brandy Ho’s; Sorabol Korean BBQ; Firewood Grill; Jillian’s; Buckhorn Grill; and Sanraku.
The second floor will be home to the 85,000 square foot CityTarget store which will offer a selection of merchandise tailored for city-dwellers, including fresh grocery offerings. A two-story glass entrance on Mission Street will take visitors directly into the new CityTarget.
AMC Theatres, Jillian’s and Sanraku will remain open during construction. City View, the new fourth floor event space, will open in September 2011. The first floor and Dining Terrace are scheduled to open early in 2012, Target will open in late 2012.
