SAN JOSE — The iconic Bank of Italy office tower in downtown San Jose may gain a new mission as a housing highrise, a conversion being discussed with the forbidding backdrop of an office market that continues to wobble.

The concept of converting the high-profile tower to residential units could be a winner for the property, considering the shortage of housing in the Bay Area and the post-coronavirus ailments that now afflict the office market in this region.
