These areas cover most of the west side of the city through the Richmond, Sunset, West Portal, Twin Peaks, and into the Marina.

To qualify, projects would require construction of a new 2-unit building with a third detached unit, or new construction of a 3-unit building with a detached 4th unit. Two units would be required to have 2-bedrooms or more.
