San Francisco Heritage owns two historic landmarks, each acting as an exemplar of responsible stewardship and as a venue to advance the organization’s mission to preserve and enhance San Francisco’s unique architectural and cultural identity. For details on our signature properties, read more below or visit the website for the Haas-Lilienthal House or Doolan-Larson Building.
Haas-Lilienthal House
Built in 1886, the Haas-Lilienthal House, at 2007 Franklin Street, functions as a house museum, a popular venue for meetings, lectures, social events, as well as the organization’s home office. Members of the Haas-Lilienthal family donated the house to SF Heritage in 1973 with most of its contents and furnishings intact. The house is open for public tours and attracts visitors from around the world. It also serves as a classroom for SF Heritage’s educational programs such as “Heritage Hikes,” an interpretive tour for 3rd graders begun in 1981.
- Information on SF Heritage events at the Haas-Lilienthal House can be found on our Events page.
Doolan-Larson House and Storefronts
The 1904 Doolan-Larson House and Storefronts stand on the northwest corner of the iconic intersection of Haight and Ashbury Streets. Gifted to SF Heritage by owner and longtime resident Norm Larson in 2017, the building’s upper floors have hosted an artist-in-residency program while the retail storefronts along Haight Street provide rental income to support SF Heritage’s mission.
- **SF Heritage is excited to participate in a process to revitalize the Doolan-Larson House and Storefronts, which began with the release of an RFCP on August 1, 2025. Read more about this adaptive reuse project, view the current proposals, and share your feedback on the Haight and Ashbury website.
- Information on the building, its role in counter-culture history, and its potential as a hub of artistic expression can be found on the Haight and Ashbury website.
