South Beach
Under the Bay Bridge is a scenic stretch of waterfront property
known as South Beach. One of San Francisco's newest neighborhoods, most
of it didn't exist before 1989 when an earthquake toppled the overhead
Embarcadero Freeway. Before the earthquake, South Beach was a warehouse
district. Today, South Beach is reaching the dramatic potential of its
light and views with great restaurants and a spectacular waterfront
promenade. You'll find brick-and-timber lofts in converted warehouses
on Bryant, Delancey, Beale, and Spear Streets. You can pay as much for
a sought-after South Beach loft as for a condominium in Pacific
Heights. Options in South Beach are brand-new luxury units with
stunning views at One Embarcadero South and The Brannan Towers or
equally stylish units at the more seasoned Portside and Baycrest
complexes. There are also options for first time homebuyers as many
buildings have smaller units where first-time homebuyers can find space.
