One of the most visible symbols of San Francisco’s technology-fueled boom is nearing completion and reshaping the city’s skyline.

Builders laid the final beam yesterday for Salesforce Tower, a $1 billion skyscraper that now stands as the tallest office building west of Chicago. The 1,070-foot (326-meter) tower is set to be finished this summer and the main tenant, Salesforce.com Inc., expects to start moving in by the end of the year.
