It is also notable for remaining in one family across two generations, unusual in San Francisco, and for surviving in an area where many fine old houses have disappeared.","narrative":"Built about 1886 at 2007 Franklin Street in San Francisco, this large wooden house was commissioned by William Haas, a successful wholesale grocer who had come from Bavaria in the 1870s. It rises two stories above a high basement, with a large attic and a rounded corner tower under a conical roof. Horizontal siding, bands of shingles and scale-like shingles cover the walls, and the carved trim mixes Victorian and early Colonial Revival forms. Inside, the principal rooms use oak, mahogany and redwood, and the basement holds a ballroom with a musicians' alcove. A garage and bedroom annex designed by Gardner Dailey was added in 1928. The house is mainly Queen Anne in style, with details anticipating the Shingle Style. It is valued for its picturesque late Victorian character, its size and its excellent preservation. It also stayed with the Haas family and its descendants for two generations, an unusual continuity of ownership in San Francisco.","period_of_significance":"19th Century","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Queen Anne, with Shingle Style and Colonial Revival details","criteria":[],"status_note":"Described as in excellent condition, unaltered in its original site, and used as a private residence; a two-story annex was added in 1928.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:31.961671-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_CA/73000438.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73000438/d468459a45-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73000438/d468459a45-1600.webp","licence":"Public domain","author":"Dreamword","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Haas-Lilienthal_House.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Dreamword</a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Haas-Lilienthal_House.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/123861143","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haas%E2%80%93Lilienthal_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5636548"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/california/san-francisco/haas-lilienthal-house-73000438/"}
