SAN FRANCISCO | Conservatory of Music (200 Van Ness Ave) | 120 FT | 12 FLOORS

Quote:
. . . the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s proposed twelve-story building to rise up to 120 feet in height at 200 Van Ness Avenue, between Hayes Street and Dr. Tom Waddell Place (was) approved by San Francisco’s Planning Commission last night.

In addition to a ground floor restaurant, recital hall and student center, the development includes a double-height performance hall on its top floor and 113 units of “group housing” outfitted with 420 beds for students of the Conservatory, three apartments for Conservatory faculty and 27 apartments to replace those which would be razed in order to make way for the development, in-between.

Demolition of Two Buildings

To make way for the Conservatory, two buildings were destroyed. On the right in the photo the white wall marks where the apartment building was, on the left the wood frame is where the former Lighthouse for the Blind was located. When this photo was taken the iron entrance gate to the apartment building was still standing.

I was out on Davies’ east balcony, as seen in Jerry’s photo. He and I actually met each other for the first time at the recent Sunday afternoon organ concert, shortly after both of our photos. The second tier was not open, so neither of us could get a daytime elevated shot.
