The Streets of Jackson, Pacific, and Broadway extend along some of the most scenic areas along the hilltop crest. The section of Broadway extending from Divisadero to Lyon Street is know as the "Gold Coast". Pacific Heights features two parks, Lafayette and Alta Plaza, each with spectacular views of the city. To the north of the neighborhood, easily visible from the top of the hill, are the Marin Headlands, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, as well as the Marina District.
