What neighborhood is 14 Louisiana St located in?

Central Waterfront/Dogpatch, San Francisco

Dogpatch is a San Francisco, California area that is roughly half industrial and half residential. It was once a working-class area, but it has been rapidly gentrified since the 1990s. It now has the same demographics as its western neighbor Potrero Hill — an upper middle-class working-class area.

Dogpatch was originally a part of Potrero Nuevo, and its history is intertwined with that of Potrero Hill. Dogpatch has its own neighborhood group, while Potrero Hill shares a merchant association, Democratic caucuses, and general community issues.
