Parnassus Heights is the oldest and largest campus site belonging to UC San Francisco. It comprises approximately 107 acres of land at the base of Mount Sutro, in the Inner Sunset mixed-use neighborhood. UCSF’s facilities are concentrated along Parnassus Avenue, which serves as the physical core of the campus site, where Moffitt and Long Hospitals, the four academic Schools, clinics, research, parking, and other support uses are located. The 61-acre Mount Sutro Open Space Reserve occupies the central and southern portion of the campus site and is designated as permanent open space and available for public use. Aldea Housing is located adjacent to (and partially surrounded by) the Reserve.
Buildings at the Parnassus Heights campus site constitute about 3.25 million square feet of building space, excluding parking garages. UCSF leases additional space in the privately owned nine-story Medical Building 2 at 350 Parnassus Avenue. For more information on the Parnassus Heights campus site, click here.
