Pacific Heights is a privileged, elegant neighborhood of San Francisco with blocks of Victorian mansions and views of the Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. San Francisco locals and visitors of other neighborhoods make a special trip to this area for the eclectic, upscale shopping opportunities on Fillmore Street.
The Pacific Heights neighborhood is loosely bordered by Van Ness and Presidio avenues and was first colonized by the nouveau riche of the late 1800s when the construction of a new cable-car line made the area accessible. The extravagant dwellings that characterize the district today stand as testimony to the desire of those early residents to impress their Nob Hill neighbors.
That legacy of grandeur has persisted, and the neighborhood remains generally quiet and residential, with the majority of its activity clustered around Fillmore Street. Filmore Street is also peppered with nice gift boutiques, bath-and-body shops and consignment stores for shopping for clothing and luxury items.
With its shopping options and scenic views, Pacific Heights and Lower Pacific Heights was made for sunny weekend afternoon strolling and coffee sipping. Though the area quiets down considerably in the evening, a crop of excellent restaurants have opened in recent years.
