"The San Francisco Water Department records show this building as being connected to the water system in 1868. The Junior League of San Francisco's book Here Joday concurs with this date and goes on to say, "This example or Atalianate Style commands respect. It has especially fine window framing on the second floor." The original owner was John,,£,JJood, an accountant for the P. M. Steamship Company, who lived there. This property passed through six parties before purchase by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency in 1967. Many of the previous owners were absentee landlords and used this property as rental property. This Victorian structure survived the 1906 earthquake and fire. Originally, this building was a large single-family residence, but recently it was used as a rooming house with each being rented separately." (visit link)
