Pacific Heights houses climb steep lots from the street, and a new appliance often reaches the kitchen up a long run of front steps and a narrow Victorian hall, so the delivery path is measured door by door and the old unit is planned out the same way before anything is ordered. ## What Pacific Heights does to an appliance. Pacific Heights sits on an east-west ridge that rises sharply from the Marina District and Cow Hollow to a maximum height of 370 feet above sea level. Most of the neighborhood's homes date from after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, when small 1870s Victorian cottages were largely replaced by larger period houses; only its oldest building, the 1853 Leale House, survived from before that boom. The neighborhood runs from Van Ness Avenue west to the edge of the Presidio, and its exact boundaries differ depending on whether the local Realtors' association, the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Services, or the Pacific Heights Residents Association draws the line.
