CRNC (CHINATOWN- RESIDENTIAL- NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL)

In CRNC districts, housing development in new and existing buildings is encouraged above the ground floor. Existing housing is protected through restrictions on demolitions and conversions.

The number of residential units in the CRNC district is calculated based on the size of the lot, but it cannot exceed 1 dwelling unit per lot.

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.

This district extends along Stockton Street between Sacramento and Broadway and along Powell Street between Washington Street and Broadway. It is generally west and uphill from Grant Avenue and is close to the relatively intensely developed residential areas of lower Nob and Russian Hills. Stockton Street is a major transit corridor that serves as “Main Street” for the Chinatown neighborhood. Both Stockton and Powell Streets contain a significant amount of housing as well as major community institutions supportive of Chinatown and the larger Chinese community. This daytime-oriented district provides local and regional specialty food shopping for fresh vegetables, poultry, fish, and meat. Weekends are this area’s busiest shopping days.

The primary use of the Chinatown Residential Neighborhood Commercial zone is mixed-use. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.

Permitted Residential Uses: ADU, single room occupancy, student housing, dwelling unit, group housing and homeless shelters, and senior housing.

65-85-N

The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 85 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.
