About 950 FRANKLIN Apartments
950 Franklin sits at a nexus of neighborhoods in the center of San Francisco. Situated on Cathedral Hill near Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory, this classic building at the edge of Lower Pacific Heights, Japantown, the Fillmore District, and Civic Center is perfectly positioned for work and play. Built in 1931, 950 Franklin boasts historic architectural features and stunning, intricately detailed design. Its beautifully appointed common spaces and brick exterior may be timeless, but modern conveniences, including an elevator, gated access, market, and on-site laundry and dry cleaning ensure residents live firmly in the present. 950 Franklin is a very bikeable Walker and Rider’s Paradise, making it a commuter favorite for its proximity to Downtown (and its BART and Muni access). It also offers plentiful bars, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment, while Sgt. John Macauley and Jefferson Square parks and nearby Kabuki Springs & Spa offer oases of calm amidst the hustling, bustling city. This unit is a rental unit subject to the San Francisco Rent Ordinance, which limits evictions without just cause, and which states that any waiver by a tenant of their rights under the Rent Ordinance is void as contrary to public policy.
950 FRANKLIN Apartments is an apartment community located in San Francisco County and the 94109 ZIP Code. This area is served by the San Francisco Unified attendance zone.

Location
Get Directions
Located just one mile north of Downtown San Francisco, Cathedral Hill was named after the breathtaking Cathedral of Saint Mary that sits on the north end of the neighborhood. As one of San Francisco’s most densely populated areas, Cathedral Hill packs a lot of attractions into a tight section of town. The Opera Plaza Theater features showings of new hit movies and classic older films throughout the week.
Gough Street and Van Ness Avenue run through Cathedral Hill/Intermission. There’s no shortage of cool restaurants and bars here, and they’re all near neighborhood apartments for rent. Pläj Scandinavian Restaurant & Bar is a neat place known for their octopus salad. On sunny summer days, residents head to Jefferson Square Park to watch recreational sports or take their dogs to the off-leash pet park.
