New building and demolition permits have been filed for a four-story residential infill at 146 Missouri Street on Potrero Hill in San Francisco. The small complex will bring two large dwellings to a fire-damaged lot. The Wyoming-registered Derreen Gardens Development LLC is listed as the property owner.
The first unit will occupy the first and second floors, with access to a rear yard and second-floor decks connected to the primary bedroom. The second unit will occupy the third and fourth floors, with private elevator access and a stairwell providing access. The top unit will include a rooftop deck offering views across the neighborhood.

i-Design Architecture is responsible for drafting plans. The plan set shows a contemporary-style townhouse infill with a flat roofline and horizontal lap-siding. The exterior will be painted a similar shade of blue to the century-old home it looks to replace.
Demolition will be required for an existing home, a wood-frame structure built by David Fassati in 1913, with the design by Paul Capurro. The Queen Anne-style house was recently damaged by a fire, with repair permits filed in May of last year.
The narrow lot is located along Missouri Street between Mariposa Street and 17th Street, half a block from the Bottom of the Hill music venue. Jackson Playground and Park are just two blocks away.

Simply hideous.
Totally agree…too big, too boxy, too tall.
Simple, practical, needed.
OMG, the end of civilization as we know it.
Common people, a single-family fire damaged shack of no design value is demolished and replaced by a duplex similar to thousands of others in the city, a second family has a new livable home in the city, all at no cost to the public.
As Observer said, simple, practical needed. Build it.
But why does it HAVE to be ugly? Is that some sort of YIMBY aspiration, to uglify San Francisco?
