The 3700 California project will transform a vacant, obsolete hospital building into a beautiful, high-quality residential community. The team behind 3700 California is committed to respecting neighborhood character. 3700 California will gracefully fit in with the existing community, mirroring the unique aspects and charm of buildings in the area and supporting a walkable lifestyle. By reflecting a mix of architectural styles, quality materials, and soft landscaped edges, each new building will blend into the look and feel of the adjacent neighborhoods.

Celebrating the Neighborhood’s Character

Given the unique character of the area, the buildings at 3700 will blend seamlessly with the architectural diversity of the finely crafted homes and buildings of Presidio Heights, Pacific Heights, Jordan Park, and Laurel Heights. The proposed project will add much-needed new housing to the neighborhood, offering a range of housing options to existing residents, including working individuals, families, and seniors, while also welcoming new ones to live, work, and play in the community.
