Play It Again, Sam - Linda's House

It’s the morning after the night before; they are lovers now. Allan drops Linda off at her home.

Several scenes at different times during the movie were filmed outside this house, a turn-of-the-century Victorian located at the north end of Pacific Heights at 2614 Buchanan Street between Broadway and Pacific (map). The recent photo below shows the building today … it houses four living units - Linda’s was the one with the red front door. But the three-car garage has been added since the movie was released.

 

Then … At the front door, it was painted white then, they seal their new-found intimacy with a tender kiss.

… and Now, from the street the garage blocks the view of the steps but the repainted door is clearly the same one - compare the matching details of its inset window lites and the door carvings.

 

Then … later in the movie this panorama of Linda leaving her home reveals that there used to be a low wall in front of the house.

… and Now, garages have replaced that wall and low jutting brick walls (which used to symmetrically match) flank the property’s entrance, now with a security gate. The adjacent property has upgraded garage doors and it too has added a security gate.
