13 New Condos Coming at 15th & Dolores

The long-vacant lot and its adjacent historical structure at the corner of 15th and Dolores are finally scheduled to become high-end residential housing later this year (barring one more upcoming “formality hearing”):


The property went through Planning review channels last Fall, and is now slated to host a mix of one- and two-bedroom condos (plus one three bedroom). Development on the land has been battled by neighbors for years, but it looks like the time has come for residential housing to take hold.

The existing structure—originally built in 1904 as a parsonage, which is a house provided for the pastor of a church—will be transformed into three condos, and the lot will ultimately see four stories of ten additional units. Parking will be available for all condos.

The developer is experienced in creating “unique, boutique residences,” according to one of the listing agents for the project. So I’m guessing pricing will be closer to the $1M mark and above for these units. (Luxury properties in established neighborhoods are generally selling at $1,000/sq foot.)

Smaller buildings with luxury finishes seem to be the trend these days, as those buyers willing and able to pay higher prices tend to prefer smaller buildings in well-established neighborhoods with limited development opportunity. And this one is in an extremely walkable, central location in Mission Dolores and straddling the Castro, Duboce Triangle, and Hayes Valley areas.

I’ll keep you posted on this project as it unfolds.
