595 Market Street is a skyscraper in San Francisco, California. The building rises 410 feet (125 meters) in the northern region of San Francisco’s Financial District. It contains 30 floors, and was completed in 1979. 595 Market Street currently stands as the 37th-tallest building in the city. The architect who designed the building was Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. It is one of the few hexagonal-shaped skyscrapers in the city.

In 2009 Visa, Inc. signed a 10 year lease for the top three floors of the building. Visa moved its top executives, and therefore, the headquarters, to 595 Market from Foster City.[1]
