With the ever-inflated real estate market in San Francisco making every patch of dirt worth a bag of diamonds, Odd Lots like the one at 1638 Larkin Street are a major curiosity. How did they survive the dot com boom? Why has no one built on them, even in popular neighborhoods? In 2003, this odd lot's number was up.
