Pacific Heights - Local Flavor Near Me

Posh neighborhood in San Francisco Pacific Heights is one of the richest neighborhoods in San Francisco. You know you're rich when you can afford panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Bay, the Palace of Fine Arts, Alcatraz, and the Presidio 24/7 all from your living room. If you win the mega million lottery jackpot you should definitely consider living here LoL! Some of the things I like to do in Pacific Heights is ogle at the mansions along Billionaire's Row. Then tackle those stairs at the Lyon Street Steps. The first time hubby took me here we went together... the second time he didn't want to join me. LoL! I went alone and did the 332-steps from top to bottom. The view from the top is incredible! Some of the homes in Pacific Heights has made it to Hollywood movies and also TV shows: Mrs. Doubtfire The Princess Diaries Full House Party of Five Danielle Steel's Spreckels Mansion is in Pacific Heights. Nicolas Cage and Patricia Arquette both lived in the neighborhood once too (not at the same time). The Speaker of the House of Representatives also has a nice Victorian home here just off Broadway. This should give an idea of some of the notable peeps that live in this neighborhood. Review #2019 read more

Pacific Heights - Lyon Street Steps - Local Flavor Near Me

"This is the big house street." My little boy was about three or four when he made that astute announcement as we headed up Broadway and drove past the mansions owned by the Gettys, Larry Ellison, Denise Hale, Danielle Steele (when she's not in Paris) and all the landed gentry of San Francisco. While Pacific Heights has always meant wealth, newly monied Millennials tend to live in trendier, hipster neighborhoods like the Mission - see prime example one, Zuckerberg in the Mission's Liberty Hill neighborhood who lives under insane 24-hour security. (So much for "openness" and the world community, eh?) Pacific Heights' tree-lined streets are empty most of the time; it feels like a Hollywood set. Or Beverly Hills. Most of the folks you do see are construction workers, tree trimmers and the occasional nanny strolling with a baby. Many of the mansions are vacant, used to park overseas money from Russia, China and other countries. The houses are furnished and well-lit but no one lives there. It's an odd and sad sight. Sometimes I fantasize I could slip into a back window of one of these lovely houses and make ourselves at home. Who's to notice except the housekeepers who take care of the dust. We can hide under a bed- maybe they'll think the errant items strewn about mean the owners are home but just out shopping at Loro Piana or Shreve. Sigh. Come for the jaw-dropping views of the Bay, sailboats, Tiburon and Belvedere from the top of the hills. See Nancy Pelosi and her grandchildren attend Sunday mass at St. Vincent de Paul (her security is extremely discreet) and drive the "big house street"! read more

Say what you want, Pacific Heights is blessed by geography. The views of the San Francisco Bay along Broadway Street are quite splendid. The boutiques are charming with their fine offerings of clothing, jewelry, decor and household services as well as a Pets Unlimited Care Center, a satellite of the SF-SPCA. I was a member of the Junior League of San Francisco, headquartered in a building smack dab in the middle of PH with a women's Athletica storefront at street level. Old churches like Cavalry have been here since the turn of the century. Who knew the posh mansions and large homes could be offices and shelters for non-profits! But they are. Alta Plaza Park is an oasis in this neighborhood. Dogs greet their chums and whirl around the green lawns oblivious of the friendships their owners are making just because of this nature's call outing that happens everyday. The best part of PH is the intersection of Fillmore & Sacramento. This is where everyone passes for their errands or coffee. Take a moment and chill. You'll find there is more to PH than the shops. People watching is awesome. But so is this island of calm that is rarely found in a city. read more

The Pacific Heights neighborhood is amazingly beautiful! Upscale from the magnificently manicured landscaping, waterfront views and well-built homes. This private area has plenty to offer in the surrounding grounds; just a short walk away from restaurants, shops, San Fran landmarks, museums, parks and whatnots. Take a gander you'll enjoy the sight. I did. ~Christy read more

One of the more calm and peaceful neighborhoods of San Francisco. It's a classy and wealthy area located in the north west area of the city. Plenty of hills and parks and you can see everything from here. You can find little cafes and chic boutiques. The main park is Lafayette Park. Perfect spot to walk your dogs. One of the main attractions here is the Mrs. Doubtfire house. Gorgeous house located in a more quiet area, it's surrounded by a mural of flowers and stones of "RIP Robin Williams". It's a wonderful neighborhood and a safe one at that. read more

Spare me your views, because, as you've constantly constantly constantly reminded me, they're your views. This isn't technically true, of course, but rich people who live on top of hills are tough to squeeze anything out of, be it taxes or kindness or consideration of anything other than their inflated egos and their circumscribed, pathetic lives. What I'm trying to say is that their views belong to me as well, just as my non-views belong to them. Yes, everyone wants what they want, from the rich to the poor. But when you have so much money that you actually have to consider what it is you want, you have too much money. And poor people do more for the economy than rich people, who just sit on their money or use it to make more money for themselves without actually adding very much to the economy. To review: six stars for the views, one star for the people who claim to own these views. Including Nancy Pelosi. I won't call her a disappointment because I never believed the hype, but it's pretty pathetic when San Francisco's most recognized US Representative is way more conservative than the people she actually represents. See, she might live in Pac Heights, but the 12th Congressional District comprises much more than Pac Heights. Cheers. read more

Great Neighbourhood to Walk & Explore - Stunning Views of the Bay and Gorgeous Mansions to Admire! My mother and I visited the Pacific Heights neighbourhood during the afternoon of August 2nd. We arrived there via MUNI bus from the Mission District. I really enjoyed wandering the residential streets in this neighbourhood and discovering some amazing views and beautiful mansions for houses to admire. The intersections of Broadway and Vallejo Streets and Fillmore and Steiner Streets offered some stunning views of the Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, the hilly/mountainous landscape and surrounding neighbourhoods. I am sure that there were many other great vantage points throughout the neighbourhood as it was very hilly. We walked a short way to corner of Broadway and Steiner Streets where the famous Mrs. Doubtfire house was located (one of my favourite movies). The house looked almost exactly the same as it did in the movie, except the two trees growing on the sidewalk in front of the house were a lot taller and fuller. It was a really great experience to see this house in person. On the sidewalk in front of the house under one of the trees, there were rocks placed there with messages and tributes as a memorial to the deceased Robin Williams. RIP. We wandered around a few other quiet streets in the neighbourhood (Vallejo and Pierce Streets) and I enjoyed taking photos of and admiring the massive and beautiful houses there. Many of the streets were very steep and it was physically challenging to hike up some of them, but enjoyable also! We walked to the top of one hilly street where we discovered the beautiful Alta Plaza Park. We admired the panoramic views from the top of this treed and green park. There were some locals there having picnics, reading, and sunbathing on blankets and this park seemed like the perfect place to relax and spend an afternoon. I enjoyed exploring the Pacific Heights neighbourhood and cannot wait to return someday to discover more hidden gems. It was well worth a visit. read more

Bougie and wealthy part of SF that's pretty great to live in. Mad hilly though so probably wouldn't recommend running and walking a lot here any time soon, but otherwise, a really lovely area in SF to live in. Can get a little sketchy at night sometimes depending on if you're on the edges of Van Ness or so, but otherwise, it's a pretty safe, residential-esque area. read more
