Info
The SF LGBT Center is a nonprofit organization serving the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender population of San Francisco, California and nearby communities, located at 1800 Market Street in San Francisco.Incorporated in 1996, the center opened its solar-powered, 35,000-square-foot (3,300 m2) facility in March 2002. The building includes a Victorian home built in 1894 by Carmelita Lodge Fallon (1827-1923), niece of General José Castro, one of the last Mexican governors of Alta California, as well as a modern building facing Market Street.
In 2016, the center began a $6.5 million renovation project to expand the space available to nonprofits that lease space in the building, as well as to improve circulation in the lobby. Programs continued throughout the renovation. On April 9, 2017, the center held a ribbon cutting ceremony and celebration to mark completion of the renovation and the 15th anniversary of the center. The total cost of the renovation was $10 million.
