What is the maximum height for 3418 26th St ?

55-X

The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 55 feet.

To support taller ground floor ceilings for commercial and active uses, improve light and air in ground-level spaces, allow slightly elevated walk-up residential units for better privacy and front stoop usability, and enhance building frontages along public streets, an extra 5 feet of height is permitted along major streets.

Building height is measured from the centerline of the building. If the building steps laterally along a street, separate measurements are taken from the centerline of each step. For flat roofs, height is measured to the highest point of the finished roof, while for pitched or stepped roofs, it is measured to the average height of the rise.

What neighborhood is 3418 26th St located in?

Inner Mission, San Francisco

The Inner Mission, District 9c, is a Mission District microhood bounded on two sides by highway 101, Dolores Street (where it borders the Mission Dolores and Noe Valley neighborhoods), and Cesar Chavez Street, where it borders Bernal Heights.

Located near the center of the City, the Inner Mission is bikeable, walkable, and has great public transportation, including two BART stations, freeway access, and bus lines.

One reason the Inner Mission is cool is because it’s hot — compared to the rest of foggy San Francisco, that is. People also love the area because it’s at the apex of all that is happening in the tech economy and culturally, including a vibrant café culture, great nightlife, an eclectic mix of new developments and classic, older San Francisco architecture.
