Great conversation at Sportico Invest West with Sixth Street’s Austin Bowers and Giants President & CEO Larry Baer on the future of sports, entertainment, and San Francisco waterfront development. From Oracle Park and one of the best fan experiences in sports to Mission Rock, Pier 48, and the Curran Theatre, we’re excited about the opportunity to help build a vibrant, year-round destination for our fans and the San Francisco community alongside our partners at Sixth Street.
Co-Head of Sports, Media and Entertainment Austin Bowers recently moderated a fireside chat with Larry Baer, CEO and President of the San Francisco Giants, at Sportico Invest West. Austin and Larry discussed why the Giants decided to bring in outside capital for the first time in 25 years, and how Sixth Street’s relationship with the team is not just about capital—it’s a true partnership. They also discussed the development of Mission Rock, a waterfront community being built right outside the ballpark. Between this new neighborhood, the restoration of Pier 48, and the historic Curran Theatre, Austin and Larry explored how the Giants are building a year-round destination for sports, media, and community. San Francisco is Sixth Street’s home, and we are incredibly proud to partner with a team that represents this great city.
