230 Anza St

IvyHills LLC purchased 230 Anza St for approximately $945,000 in summer 2025. The site contains a boarded-up, long-vacant two-story duplex that has been vacant since 2019 and that neighbors have called an eyesore. The parcel also carries a complicated development history, including 5 prior permits and 1 dead planning record. A 2021 proposal sought to replace the existing building with a larger three-unit project and legalize work that exceeded earlier permits.

IvyHills filed the current application in February 2026 through the Family Zoning pathway. The proposal calls for 8 homes in an 8-story building, with 2 two-bedroom residences and 6 three-bedroom residences. The project includes 2 affordable units. Krystal Dong is the applicant for IvyHills, and Jeffrey Horn is the assigned planner.

On July 23, 2026, the Planning Commission unanimously approved the project, making it the first approved project under the Family Zoning Plan, according to the San Francisco Standard. Neighbors objected to the building’s scale, potential loss of views and traffic effects. Commissioners said the added height reflected the intended result of west-side upzoning. Planning Commission President Amy Campbell called the project a “poster child” for Family Zoning, the Chronicle reported.

The approval moved the project into entitled status in July 2026, but no construction-start timeline has been established. A feasibility screen found the site eligible but concluded that development does not pencil. The modeled yield on cost was 3.4 against a required 6.5, a gap of 309 basis points below the threshold. The broader Lone Mountain/USF pipeline contains 25 projects and 842 units.
