Impressions of the Gatewood-Keane Mansion

390 Page Street in Hayes Valley

I recently attended a meeting of the Victorian Alliance at 390 Page Street in San Francisco. The elegant 1875 Italianate Victorian where the meeting took place is for sale. Robert Collett, the Realtor for this property, opened up the house specially for the members of the Victorian Alliance to view before and after the meeting.

Located at 390 Page St., this ca. 1875 Italianate Victorian residence was meticulously restored between 1982 and 1994 by the late artist William Gatewood, his family, and friends.
