The Fillmore Street Neighborhood Commercial Transit District (“Fillmore Street NCT”) extends along Fillmore Street between Bush and McAllister Streets. Fillmore Street’s dense mixed-use character consists of buildings with residential units above ground-story commercial use. Buildings range in height from one-story commercial buildings to high-rise towers.
The Fillmore Street NCT controls are designed to encourage and promote development that enhances the walkable, mixed-use character of the corridor and surrounding neighborhoods. Rear yard requirements at residential levels preserve open space corridors of interior blocks. Housing development in new buildings is encouraged above the ground story. Existing residential units are protected by limitations on demolition and upper-story conversions.
The Fillmore Street Neighborhood Commercial Transit District (Fillmore Street NCT) spans Fillmore Street from Bush to McAllister Streets, characterized by its dense mixed-use environment with residential units above ground-story commercial spaces. Designed to enhance the walkable, mixed-use character, controls encourage housing development above the ground story while protecting existing residential units. Accessory Dwelling Units are permitted. New commercial development is permitted at the ground and second stories, emphasizing neighborhood- and visitor-serving businesses. Formula Retail use controls align with citywide policy. Second stories may host certain retail, personal services, and medical/business/professional offices. Controls on parking, hotels, drive-up facilities, and automobile uses ensure district livability and promote continuous retail frontage.

Permitted Non-Residential Uses: Agriculture (neighborhood), arts activities, entertainment, general, institutional uses and child care facility, community facility.
Height of a dwelling cannot exceed a 50 feet.
In order to encourage generous ground floor ceiling heights for commercial and other active uses, encourage additional light and air into ground floor spaces, allow for walk-up ground floor residential uses to be raised slightly from sidewalk level for privacy and usability of front stoops, and create better building frontage on the public street, up to an additional 5' of height is allowed along major streets in NCT and specific areas in NC-1, NC-2 and NC-3 districts, for buildings that feature either higher ground floor ceilings for non-residential uses or ground floor residential units (that have direct walk-up access from the sidewalk) raised up from sidewalk level.
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
Western Addition neighborhood has the only other Japantown in Northern California (the other being in San Jose). Plus, the super famous Fillmore Theatre is right here and we have our own farmer’s market every Saturday, with a live jazz band to accompany it!
The Western Addition, like many neighborhoods, is ill-defined. Some maps draw it as encompassing all of Alamo Square Park and a significant portion of what is now known as "NoPa," while others define it as the area north of Golden Gate, extending to Geary.
Western Addition intersects and/or overlaps with the Alamo Square neighborhood, NoPa, the Fillmore District, Lower Pacific Heights and the Lower Haight, depending on how you mentally define it.
Based on how many in the hood talk about the Western Addition, its borders appear to have shrunk over the past several years to encompass an area containing a number of lower-income housing units. At the same time, new neighborhood names such as NoPa have appeared, and the Alamo Square neighborhood began to mentally capture more and more of the common vernacular. This is no doubt due to the efforts of real estate agents.
