All employees who paid $.50 a month were eligible for treatment at the hospital. The hospital was designed by Frederick H. Meyers, who was the son of a German immigrant, was born in San Francisco in 1876. Meyers designed a wide variety of buildings types throughout his career including single family residences, office buildings, civic buildings, apartment buildings, schools, and tall office buildings. Meyer also designed the Union Iron Works administration building located at nearby 20th and Illinois Streets. In 1948 a group of investors purchased the building, among them was Henry Kaiser. By 1954 the building operated as a Kaiser – Permanente Foundation Hospital until the 60’s. In the 1960’s Kaiser sold the property to a doctor who operated a convalescent home there until February of 2014.

Potrero Hill is located on the eastern side of the city, east of the Mission District and south of SOMA (South of Market) and the newly designated district Showplace Square.[2] It is bordered by 16th Street to the north, Potrero Avenue and U.S. Route 101 (below 20th Street) to the west and Cesar Chavez Street to the south. The city of San Francisco considers the area below 20th Street between Potrero Ave and Route 101 to be part of Potrero Hill as well, as outlined in the Eastern [3] Neighborhood Plan. Potrero Hill is one of the sunniest neighborhoods in San Francisco, located on the eastern side of the peninsula and flanked by the San Francisco Bay. It is insulated from the fog and chill of the Pacific Ocean that is typical on the western side of the city. It is a residential neighborhood and not considered a tourist destination. Although it is not the most walkable neighborhood in San Francisco due to its hills, it is generally considered a very convenient location due to its proximity to offices, shopping, dining, entertainment, freeways and a Caltrain station. Despite being surrounded by busy neighborhoods, Potrero Hill is quiet and sleepy. The area east of Highway 280 is Dogpatch. Dogpatch was originally part of Potrero Nuevo and its history is closely tied to Potrero Hill. Some consider Dogpatch to be its own neighborhood while others disagree. Dogpatch has its own neighborhood association but shares merchant associat ion, Democratic caucuses, and general neighborhood matters with Potrero Hill. Potrero Hill started as a Caucasian working-class neighborhood in the 1850s. Its central location attracted many working professionals during the dot-com era in the 1990s. Today, it is mostly an upper-middle-class family-oriented neighborhood. In addition to Freeway 101 and 280, Caltrain also runs through this area, making it popular with commuters. Most homes in Potrero Hill have views of the downtown skyline, the San Francisco Bay or Twin Peaks. Potrero Hill has a North and a South Slope, with the North Slope generally more coveted due to its proximity to downtown. There is no clear dividing line between North and South as the hill apexes in various places. 4 | Page OFFERING MEMORANDUM 331 Pennsylvania Avenue The Existing Improvements 331 Pennsylvania Avenue is a 9,643, three-story, reinforced-concrete, Renaissance Revival - style hospital building finished in stucco and capped with a flat roof.

Such areas tend to have similarity of building styles and predominantly contain large units suitable for family occupancy, considerable open space, and limited nonresidential uses. RH-2 District These districts are devoted to one-family and two-family houses, with the latter commonly consisting of two large flats, one occupied by the owner and the other available for rental.

Considerable ground-level open space is available, and it frequently is private for each unit. The districts may have easy access to shopping facilities and transit lines. In some cases, group housing and institutions are found in these areas, although nonresidential uses tend to be
