LONE MOUNTAIN EAST

Perched on the eastern edge of the Hilltop, Lone Mountain East is a new residence hall that overlooks the Golden Gate Bridge, Marin Headlands, and Farallon Islands.

It provides housing for approximately 600 residents, mostly second-year students. It is comprised of two distinct buildings (four floors and five floors, respectively) connected by an overhead bridgeway. It is a co-ed residence hall with same-gender apartment-style units.

St. Anne's is located at 14th Avenue, between Irving and Judah, on the St. Anne of the Sunset Church and School site.
