Development permits were submitted seeking the approval of a residential project at 2515 Folsom Street in Mission District, San Francisco. The project proposal includes the development of a four-story apartment building. Plans call for the demolition of a two-story single-family dwelling on the site.
Shatara Architecture Inc is responsible for the design concepts.
The project site is a parcel spanning an area of 3,672 square feet. The project will bring four dwelling units into a four-story apartment building. The project proposes to demolish an existing single-family wood construction home spanning an area of 1,755 square feet. The new construction includes a car stacker which provides four parking spaces, one for each new unit, and limits the impact the new residents will have on-street parking in the neighborhood.
The cost of construction is estimated at $1,499,000. The project is under review and an estimated construction timeline has not been announced yet.

Density is a plus. Parking (as tirelessly regurgitated by many on this site) seems a bit unnecessary, but I get it. The thing that kills me about it is their rationale; “to limit the impacts new residents will have on street-parking” as though adding space for four additional vehicles in the neighborhood isn’t adding to the problem in the first place. It’s also 100% dog-whistle to NIMBY clowns that aren’t cool with “new residents” and their implied negative impact on the neighborhood.
Otherwise, I wish the architect would keep the “stoop” motif going but imagine the height limits make that impossible.
