Along with the Marina District itself, SF Planning's unit includes Cow Hollow and its Union Street shopping corridor, plus the northern slopes of Pacific Heights. The waterfront edge holds the Marina Green, Fort Mason, and the Palace of Fine Arts, while Chestnut Street and Lombard Street serve as the main commercial spines.
Housing in the Marina proper is dominated by early twentieth-century single-family homes and multi-unit buildings on land filled for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, while Cow Hollow has more Victorian and Edwardian homes and flats. Zoning is mostly RH-2, RH-3, and RH-1, with RM-3 and RTO-C on some blocks, NC-2 along Chestnut Street, NC-3 along Lombard Street, and the Union Street Neighborhood Commercial District (NCD) in Cow Hollow.
