What are the local zoning regulations for 450 Harrison St ?

RH DTR (RINCON HILL DOWNTOWN RESIDENTIAL)

In RH-DTR districts, high-density housing is allowed, including Accessory Dwelling Units. If below-market-rate units are constructed off-site, they should be located within the area bordered by Market Street, the Embarcadero, King Street, Division Street, and South Van Ness Avenue.

The number of residential units in the RH-DTR district is unlimited. Density is controlled by the allowed height and bulk, along with the required setbacks, exposure, and open space for each parcel.

Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.

Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.

Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.

The RH-DTR District is adjacent to the southern edge of the downtown, generally bounded by Folsom Street, the Bay Bridge, the Embarcadero, and Essex Street. High-density residential uses and supporting commercial and institutional uses are allowed and encouraged within the limits set by height, bulk, and tower spacing controls. Folsom Street is intended to develop as the neighborhood commercial heart of the Rincon Hill and Transbay neighborhoods, and pedestrian-oriented uses are required on the ground floor. Individual townhouse dwelling units with ground floor entries directly to the street are required on streets that will become primarily residential, including First, Fremont, Beale, Main, and Spear Streets.

The primary use of the Rincon Hill Downtown Residential Mixed Use zone is residential. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.

Permitted Residential Uses: ADU, group housing, dwelling units, and homeless shelters.

Permitted Non-Residential Uses: Open space, walk-up facility, business sign, residential care facility, child care facility.

What is the maximum height for 450 Harrison St ?

85/400-R

The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 400 feet. However, the height limit may be decreased or increased based on the slope of the lot.

Tower Base: The base is the lowest part of the building, extending vertically to a street wall height of up to 1.25 times the width of the widest abutting street or 50 feet, whichever is greater. There are no limitations on the length or diagonal dimensions of the base.

Lower Tower: For buildings under 160 feet in height, the bulk controls for the lower tower are the only applicable controls above the building base. These controls include a maximum length of 160 feet, a maximum floor size of 20,000 square feet, and a maximum diagonal dimension of 190 feet.

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.
