concentration of corporate headquarters, law firms, insurance companies,
real estate firms, banks, savings and loans, and other financial institutions.
All six San Francisco Fortune 500 companies—McKesson, Wells Fargo,
PG&E, Gap, Charles Schwab, and Salesforce.com—are located in the
district.[5]

The area is marked by the cluster of high-rise towers in the triangular area
east of Kearny Street,[6] south of Washington Street, west of the
Embarcadero that rings the waterfront, and north of Market Street. The
city’s tallest buildings, including 555 California Street and the
Transamerica Pyramid, and many other tall buildings, such as 101 California
Street and 345 California Street are located there. Montgomery Street
(sometimes called “Wall Street of the West”) is the traditional heart of the
district.

Since the 1980s, restrictions on high rise construction have shifted new
development to the adjacent South of Market area surrounding the
Transbay Transit Center. This area is sometimes called the South Financial
District by real estate developers, or simply included as part of the
Financial District itself
