About Mission Bay

Cat sitting in Mission Bay, what it actually looks like

Mission Bay is the planned-development high-rise neighborhood south of SoMa, anchored by the Chase Center (Warriors arena), UCSF Mission Bay campus, and Mission Bay Park's waterfront. Newest neighborhood in SF, all built since 2000, with dense condo-and-rental towers.

Mission Bay sitters skew UCSF and tech-worker. The breed mix favors small-medium dogs: doodles, Frenchies, Cavaliers, plus Labradors in the larger units. Mission Bay Park's dog area and the waterfront promenade provide ample green space.
