Getting to know Rincon Hill
High-rise residential towers rise above the Bay Bridge approaches.
THE LOCAL ROUTINE
Start with the streets
Compare upper and lower elevations and the route to the waterfront.
Visit at more than one time of day. An attractive listing can feel quite different once you account for the actual walk to groceries, transit, parks and the nearest busy intersection.
HOUSING & DUE DILIGENCE
Look beyond the listing
Elevator capacity, HOA reserves, wind and bridge-approach traffic matter.
Request inspections, disclosures and permit history for the specific property. For condominiums, review association financials, insurance and any planned assessments.
