Plans have been filed to convert a portion of a ground-level garage into housing at 3571 16th Street in the Castro District, San Francisco. The application would replace eight covered spaces with three accessory dwelling units, invoking a local ordinance. Syncopated Architecture is responsible for drafting the plans.

The 33-foot-tall structure is recorded as built in 1963 by an unknown architect in the Midcentury Modern style. The existing 12 units will remain untouched throughout the conversion. The new ADUs would each offer two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Two of the three units will have direct access to the shared backyard.
Structure Properties is responsible for the project as the property owner. The 0.12-acre property is located at the corner of 16th Street and Pond Street, overlooking Market Street and just a block away from the Sanchez Elementary School and Everett Middle School campus.

Construction is estimated to cost two-thirds of a million dollars, a figure not inclusive of all development costs. The timeline for work has not yet been shared.
