New building permits have been filed for a small residential infill at 502 14th Street in San Francisco’s Mission District. The proposal would replace a single-story garage with a four-story duplex. Corbin Jones of GBA, a San Francisco-based permit expediter, is listed as the project applicant.
The 38-foot tall structure is expected to yield around 3,000 square feet, with 1,280 square feet for dwelling unit 1 and 1,610 square feet for dwelling unit two. Both units will have two bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with shared access to the rooftop deck. Parking will be included for two cars with stackers and two bicycles.

McElroy Architecture is responsible for the design. Illustrations show a simplified vernacular design with vertical wood-board siding and ground-level stucco walling. A boxy bay window will rise three floors above the garage door.
Demolition will be required for the single-story garage, connected to the 1924-built three-story classical revival apartment at 194 Guerrero Street. The existing lot will be subdivided from 0.079 acres, with plans for 502 14th Street to rise over 0.043 acres. The recent building permit will not impact the century-old apartments.

City records show the property sold in 2018 for $4.135 million. Planning applications estimate construction will cost around $900,000 and last twelve months.

The first thing this developer needs to do is hire a good architect, the ground floor unit will not have any privacy? And who in their right mind will pay over a half million dollars with no parking space?

Perfect for The City… Some people will NEVER be satisfied.
