National Register #73000444
Vollmer House
1735-1737 Webster Street Between Sutter and Bush
Lower Pacific Heights
Built 1885
Architects Samuel and Joseph Cather Newsom designed the flamboyant
Eastlake residence at 1735-1737 Webster Street.
The house, originally located at 773 Turk Street, barely escaped
the 1906 fire, which was contained at Van Ness Avenue, one block
to the east.
In 1974, the Vollmer House again escaped destruction, this time
deliberate destruction by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency.
With the aid of San Francisco Architectural Heritage, the house
was moved to its current Webster Street location for preservation
as a private residence.
