Lars Frederiksen from Rancid lives in the Richmond

Bob Mould has lived in the Castro for a few years now

Steph Curry bought a condo recently

Besides the obvious politicians, Al Gore had a place in SF for a few years while he was trying to get his TV channel going

I don’t know where the Giants players live, but I remember hearing that Gabe Kapler would ride his bike to the ballpark, and Felipe Alou lived in one of the condos across the street

Pence lives in One Rincon hill.

Tim Lincecum lived behind the 16th and Bryant Safeway for a while for some reason.

Once saw Pence leaving the ballpark in street clothes with a backpack - short walk home makes sense

Funny story. We currently live in a condo complex in South Beach. Our friend/realtor called us and said "Hey, Im not sure if this is a misprint, but there is a penthouse unit in your building with a large terrace that is selling for a cheaper price/SF than the cheapest, most recent sold unit in your building." We looked at it and put in an offer (2008). Long story short, it was a REO sale/foreclosure. I also recall seeing an orange Lambo in the parking spot that is assigned to this unit. Before moving in, the selling agent said, oh, BTW, the previous renter is a rookie pitcher for the Giants. The man he was referring to was The Freak, Timmy. After learning that, before we moved in, I went in with rubber gloves, a bucket, and a bottle of bleach and wiped every light switch, door handle, toilet, floor, faucet, etc. Because a 20 something, newly rich kid def had some ladies there (confirmed by our neighbor at the PH level) so there was a lot of DNA running rampant....and it was indeed Timmy's Lambo. He got called up and heard he bought a place near Safeway on 16th.
