707 Castro Street
Eureka Valley · San Francisco, CA 94114
By some eighty years the newest building documented on the 700 block — and the only one built after the Second World War — standing inside a historic district whose period of significance ended in 1906.
A modern building in a historic district
The parcel lies inside the Castro & Liberty Streets Historic District, whose period of significance is 1897–1906 — so this building, completed in 1980, postdates the district by roughly three quarters of a century. It nonetheless carries CEQA Category A status, which Planning assigns at parcel level to everything inside the district boundary. Whether the building counts as contributing or non-contributing is not established by the data used here.
