The project would secure 28 affordable housing units at 50 percent of the Area Median Income, and it could be the first project under SB 423.

San Francisco’s Planning Commissioners heard preliminary information on Thursday for a proposed housing project at Market Street and Duboce Avenue that could bring 200-units of mostly market-rate housing to the Duboce Triangle area.

The city successfully built enough units for the higher income sector but fell short for the low and middle-income bracket.A view of the intersection of Market Street and Duboce Avenue where a new building with 200 units is being proposed on Thursday, July 25, 2024.

The most contested question, however, came regarding tribal consultation, which under SB 423 would require the Planning Department to notify tribal representatives about the project to give them an opportunity to speak with archaeologists from the city’s agency. As for the timeline for the project, commissioner Kathrin Moore asked Kevlin about how soon they would start construction at the site. Kevlin said that it is very difficult to say because permits for such large buildings can take a long time, but he added that based on his experience such projects can take up to three years.
