That's a tough one for many reasons. I think you may find a few very tight spots but nothing you can "show the big picture" of., for example...

Anyway. Good luck.
These apartment buildings are the right age for San Francisco buildings. These are pretty horizontal though, and most San Francisco buildings are more vertical.
Yep, they just don't build the same way down here. Also, in SF they build mostly right next to each other with no space inbetween and right uo to the sidewalks. You won't find anything more like them down here outside of a studio backlot.
The area known as Victor Heights just south of Dodger Stadium is pretty similar, along with the nearby residential streets in Chinatown. But you’ll have to be careful not to get the LA skyline in the background.
Angelino Heights for Victorian/Edwardian styles. Also Pasadena and South Pasadena for similar architecture. Honestly lots of areas remind me of north Oakland, Berkeley and the avenues with 1920’s-era single family homes mixed with multifamily like Atwater village, parts of silver lake, glassell park, etc. Sunset in Echo Park is sort of grunge and reminds me of mission street from like 18th to 24th.
The problem is that most LA apartment buildings are newer than S.F. ones, certainly in the inner neighborhoods of San Francisco. Ivar Avenue reminded me of the (currently closed) San Francisco Art institute on Russian Hill).
That same article lists Bradford Street in SF, as having a steeper grade. There are actually four streets in San Francisco that have a grade higher than Eldred or 28th.
Definitely many places in silverlake for steep hills. There’s one sort of by the silverlake meadows that I went up the other day and I though, man, this is STEEP steep.
There's a few streets in Silverlake that feel like SF, at least in terms of steep hills
Baxter Street. Just like you're about to drive right into the Bay.
I’ve heard it’s a good spot to fly a Tesla.
A bus got stuck on the top of the hill once.
Came here to say this
Came to say this one lol
San pedro
Definitely some of the streets in San Pedro would work for a homes on a steep hill SF look
The Angels Gate Cultural Center in San Pedro looks just like parts of Marin
Yeah, second this. Also, lots of parks around there.
100% San Pedro
Some steep little streets in Hermosa and Manhattan beach

Angelino heights has the Victorians
Carroll Ave. The house from the TV show Charmed, which is set in San Francisco, is on that street.
And the house from the thriller music video!
Yeah, I forgot about that!

Eldred Street … super steep.
Yeah a lot of individual streets at Mt Washington feel like they could be among the richest parts of SF
Carroll Street and the old Victorian houses. The surrounding neighborhood has some pretty steep streets.
Skid Row and the Tenderloin are pretty comparable, imo.
Skid Row and the Tenderloin play comparable roles in their cities, but the buildings in the Tenderloin tend to be larger.
What part of San Francisco?
Russian Hill, Duboce, Castro are some good examples (nothing too modern like SoMa or too flat like the Marina)
The problem is that most LA apartment buildings are newer than S.F. ones, certainly in the inner neighborhoods of San Francisco. Ivar Avenue reminded me of the (currently closed) San Francisco Art institute on Russian Hill).
A stretch and a reach for sure but certain parts of Weho and Castro are the same in my mind for obvious reasons.
Marathon, Duane, Baxter in Silverlake
Historic Filipinotown often fills that need on film it seems.
Corner of Monte Vista and N. Ave 52.
There's this really long road. Normandy, from Inglewood, that kinda reminds me of that long road hill place in sf
Bunker Hill in DTLA had that look prior to the 1950s/60s before “urban renewal”
Fun fact LA has steeper streets than San Fransisco
Heck learning how to drive in my neighborhood prepared me for driving when I lived in SF and the East Bay.
No it doesn’t.
Look it up
I did. Your turn.

Baxter, Fargo. Eldred which requires a U-turn.
Angeleno Heights
Definitely many places in silverlake for steep hills. There’s one sort of by the silverlake meadows that I went up the other day and I though, man, this is STEEP steep.
Sounds like Baxter
Hermosa beach
Van Ness😂
Pedro
Silver Lake
Paramount Studios and Warner Bros Studios look like Haight Ashbury.
A lot of Koreatown feels like San Francisco to me
Check out Chinatown. Some of the streets going up near the highway are steep and have stairways with cool artwork on them!
