I lived here from 2013-2026…read more The management is WILDLY mismanaged. Ronnie and Denis are incredibly rude and completely unhelpful. When they redid the patios we had to pay even though we were on the bottom and all of our stored belongings (patio chairs, BBQ, etc.) were lost, our plants destroyed, and our patio got smaller while losing access to water. I called before the project started, during the project, and long after to ensure my items and plants would be safe/returned. I called and emailed for over a year trying to locate my items. They promised my plants/trees would be watered when I couldn't access them during the work. A few died and the rest had to be completely cut back. I emailed and called dozens of times with no responses. I eventally found my BBQ in the trash area near a toilet and used mattress, propane tank missing, which I clearly didn't want to cook food on again. It was obviously unsanitary. A 3 month balcony repair led to a 16 month ordeal. We were also accessed for a solar project and there was NO transparency in PGE bills. They went up and up with no information on how these panels we paid for saved us anything. HOA bills have weird charges. We kept getting charged for over a year for our dog who had passed away. I called the HOA twice upon her passing to stop being charged and no one would update the account. I found charges on our bill labeled "miscellaneous" and when I called to inquire about them nobody could tell me what those charges were for. I had neighbors who had auto-bill and were charged twice by mistake. The hallway floors are filthy. When we first moved in they were regularly cleaned. That stopped years ago. ***That said I loved my neighbors. I seriously had the best neighbors ever. Maintenance was also wonderful! They were prompt and so helpful.***

Living in the SF Shipyard: A Two-Year Resident's Perspective…read more For the past two years, I've called the SF Shipyard home. Nestled at the end of a peninsula, it was once a quiet, safe, and charming neighborhood with delightful views of the bay and a scenic path adorned with large sculptures. It felt like a hidden gem--peaceful, warm, and full of promise. But 2025 brought change. With three new apartment buildings opening, the influx of residents has shifted the dynamic. Crime has increased enough that discussions about hiring full-time security have begun--at an additional cost to our already high HOA dues. Parking, once manageable, has become a daily challenge. Being on a peninsula means overflow traffic has only one direction to go: up Kirkwood and Jerrold. Pros of Living in the SF Shipyard * Affordability (Relatively Speaking): Your dollar stretches 2.5-3x farther than elsewhere in SF. No more throwing money away on rent. * Warmer Climate: It's about 10 degrees warmer in summer. * Peace and Quiet: It's still one of the quietest neighborhoods in the city. * Scenic Views: Water views are a daily luxury. * Modern Living: Homes come with decent appliances, in-unit washer/dryer, air conditioning, and energy-efficient features. * Outdoor Spaces: India Basin Park and two other parks nearby offer green space. * Walkability to Unique Spots: Archimedes Banya is walkable, and Pier 70 & 80 events are nearly within reach. * Community Events: Frisco Fridays add a fun, local vibe. Cons of Living in the SF Shipyard * Odors: Occasionally, the sewage treatment plant makes its presence known. * Property Value: Don't expect significant appreciation, if any. * Mello-Roos Fees: The city doesn't seem to be fulfilling its obligations with these funds. * Hidden Costs: High HOA dues, move-in/out fees, and Mello-Roos -make it less affordable than it appears. * Limited Amenities: No nearby grocery stores--you'll need to go to Bernal, Potrero, or the Mission. * Restricted Access: Much of the surrounding open space is off-limits due to radiation or naval restrictions. * Safety Concerns: Little to no police presence. Drivers often speed, run red lights, and ignore stop signs. SFPD rarely enforces traffic laws here. * Car Dependency: You need a car, and parking is a major issue. Without a designated spot, you must be home by 5-5:30pm to find parking. Going out at night risks losing your spot. Guests struggle to find parking at any time. Public transportation at night feels unsafe. * Madison Building Issues: Electrical issues are widespread--13 owners had to band together to get the developer to act. (Personally, I'm on my fourth set of breakers and second HVAC compressor.) The EST3 alarm goes off almost every weekend and can blare for 48-72 hours if it happens outside business hours. Hosting a party in the Pavilion costs over $200, on top of $700+/mo HOA dues. Final Thoughts I moved here for the peace, the views, and the modern amenities. I wanted to stop renting and avoid being house poor. But with the current growing pains, I can't recommend moving to the SF Shipyard--especially not to the Madison building.

Before you should deal with Lennar be aware that Lennar is 2nd worst builder in USA in terms of…read morecustomer satisfaction. I got to experience this first hand. I signed a purchase agreement on a home. A week later they dropped prices on similar homes by $22K. We requested them to adjust the price as any decent national builder would do. But Lennar doesn't give a s**t about you once you are trapped in the contract. So they denied. Never again in my life I'm doing business with this company. I advise you all to also add price drop contingency in your purchase agreement if you decide to deal with the devil or better yet stay away.

I remember seeing…read moremy apartment and Pacifica for the first time: my apartment was full of light, it was spotless, with a spacious bathroom; Pacifica was... well, Pacifica is just gorgeous. My first interaction was with Angele, who was incredibly welcoming. She walked me through the application process, making it a breeze. Her friendliness and professionalism definitely played a part in my decision to rent here. The whole team has been very helpful ever since. DJ the maintenance guy is very responsive, professional and respectful, so is Melani, the Property Manager. I always feel cared for, and I feel confident going to the office with any questions, knowing that they will take their time to help me out. The building is on the older side, but it is nice and well maintained. There is a laundromat and a small gym, the community is gated with assigned parking. I have heard that there is a swimming pool at the other property, but I have never made it out there (shame on me)... The building is just steps away from the ocean and from the famous Pacifica Pier. I can hear the ocean when I fall asleep and when I wake up :) The only downside that I can think of at this moment, which may be a deal breaker for some people, is the local microclimate. It is foggy most of the year, and it is often windy and chilly as we are right next to the ocean. For me this is a good thing though, as I don't tolerate heat well and I prefer this climate. And don't get me wrong, we do get a lot of warm and sunny days, too!

The…read moreproperty is on the older side and things need to be repaired from time to time (and there are ongoing repairs as a result), but the rent was/is very reasonably priced for the area, and the management, in my experience, is responsive. Melani, the manager, has been quick to reply to emails and phone calls, and though most of my calls just have to do with repairs, she was great to work with and professional. She also held events here and there for the tenants to build community. The maintenance guy, DJ, is honestly a wonderful person. Hardworking, always gets the job done, and a great conversationalist to boot. He really cares about his job and the tenants here, and it shows with the quality of the repairs. From a superficial POV, the complex is literally a short walk to the beach and pier, which is great. When my friends visited, they always asked to scope out the beach and Mori Point and told me how jealous they were of where I lived. Yes, the building could be newer and a renovation is in order, but for the convenient location (close to CA-1, 280, beach, Mori Point, cute neighborhood restaurants and cafe), nice staff, and comparatively low rent, it's not too bad. Palmetto is undergoing serious development, so the social scene will likely change, too. Some nice views, too, if you're willing to pay extra!
