An application for the replacement of a two-story residence at 658 29th Street in the Noe Valley area of San Francisco is to be reviewed in interdepartmental meetings. The plan calls for the complete demolition of the existing building and the new construction of a three-story single-family residence designed by architect Gabriel Legaspi.
The current building is estimated to be constructed in 1884, and is of historic age, but a 2024 Historic Resource Evaluation cleared the project as a non-historic resource. The Noe Valley area was first developed in the 1880s, making the building part of the first wave of construction for the area. However, the specific property does not meet the requirements to be considered of historical merit. Among the reasons include the many repeated alterations over the decades, preventing the building from exhibiting a cohesive historic or contemporary architectural style.
The new plan would construct a three-story 3994 square foot residence on the site, significantly increasing the overall size of the occupiable space. The layout includes designs for a main four-bedroom single family residence, two vehicle parking garage, and a single bedroom in-law. The plan also includes a canopied rooftop terrace with provisions for the future addition of solar panels.

Despite the inclusion of a self-sufficient ADU, the new building will still be classified as a single-family residence. Both the main residence and ADU will have access to the garage, with additional access to the roof deck, rear deck, and yard via main residence only.
