ATTACHED COMMUNITY OF THE YEAR
Known to be the type of inimitable place that invites you to stay for
generations because it would be impossible to do better, Pacific Heights is one
of San Francisco’s most desirable neighborhoods. However, new development
within the tony enclave has traditionally been hindered by a lack of available
real estate and rigorous building restrictions. The singular set of circumstances
that came together to create The Pacific can easily be described as a superior
force or chance occurrence. When, after nearly five decades, the University of
the Pacific opted to move its campus from Pacific Heights to South of Market,
the visionary team at Trumark Urban and Handel Architects embraced the
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

incarnation as a less-than-stellar example of Brutalist architecture and the site

Row Houses at The Pacific.
Everyone on the team—development, construction, architecture, interiors,
sales, marketing, branding, landscape—knew that they had to reach deep
and push beyond any standards putting both skill and heart in their work.
Never answering ‘no’, always trying to find a way to make it better, more
awe-inspiring. With an unparalleled opportunity, the Pacific team has crushed
expectations changed the way luxury is viewed in San Francisco and breaking
price ceilings with upwards of $3,750 / sq. ft.
