Wormser-Coleman House, also known as the Isaac Wormser House and John C. Coleman House, is a historical building built in 1876, located at 1834 California Street in San Francisco, California.[2][3] It has been listed as a San Francisco Designated Landmark since 1973.[2] As of 2022, the building is a private residence.

History

[edit]

The house was originally built by Isaac Wormser (1822–1895), an importer and jobber of liquor.[4][5]

In 1895, the house was sold to John C. Coleman, a businessman and politician.[2] The property is on two lots that were merged by Coleman in order to create a spacious yard.[6] Coleman also expanded the house.[2]
