The establishment of the "Balboa Reservoir Special Use District" (SUD) is confirmed, encompassing the City College of San Francisco Ocean Campus to the east, Archbishop Riordan High School to the north, the Westwood Park neighborhood to the west, and a San Francisco Public Utilities Commission parcel along Ocean Avenue to the south.

Its aim is to foster a child- and family-friendly mixed-use residential neighborhood, providing substantial benefits such as new housing, including a high percentage of affordable and educator housing, public open spaces, childcare facilities, retail spaces, and infrastructure improvements, thereby cultivating a vibrant, environmentally sustainable community.
Permitted Residential Use: Educator housing, child- and family-friendly mixed-use residential neighborhood.
Permitted Non-Residential Use: Publicly accessible open space, a child care facility and community room, retail space, and extensive infrastructure.
Height of a dwelling cannot exceed a 78 feet. In the Balboa Reservoir Special Use District and the 78-X Height and Bulk Districts, heights are more specifically prescribed for each Block.
How to measure height in San Francisco?
A point shall be taken at the centerline of the building or, where the building steps laterally in relation to a street that is the basis for height measurement, separate points shall be taken at the centerline of each building step. The upper point to which such measurement shall be taken shall be the highest point on the finished roof in the case of a flat roof, and the average height of the rise in the case of a pitched or stepped roof.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also called secondary units, in-law units, or cottages, are units added to existing and new residential buildings. Adding an ADU to your property can provide several benefits, such as providing housing for family members, simplifying your lifestyle, and increased financial flexibility.Learn more about building ADU in this article
The micro-neighborhood tucked between Sunnyside, Monterey Heights, and Mt. Davidson Manor.
There are more than 650 single family, detached homes with front and backyards, and garages. Built as a 1920s-era bungalow neighborhood, it was designed as a residence park for middle class San Franciscans. Early lot buyers received a brochure with the not-so-catchy-title, “Attractive Bungalows for Moderate Cost for Westwood Park in Sutro Forest San Francisco.”
The neighborhood as a whole has a uniform look, but each home has unique architectural details. There are modified versions of styles such as Craftsman, Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, American Colonial, English Cottage, Tudor, Storybook, and Dutch Colonial.
