San Francisco – (January 17, 2024) — The 45th San Francisco Decorator Showcase (open April 27 – May 27, 2024) is delighted to announce the selection of the 2024 designers who will transform the mansion at 2898 Broadway on “Billionaire’s Row“ in Pacific Heights. Twenty-four of the West Coast’s top interior designer firms will remake 27 living spaces in the culturally and historically significant 11,155-square-foot Dutch Colonial mansion boasting five floors of living space with commanding views of the San Francisco Bay and beyond.
Featured as the Decorator Showcase venue in 1989 and built in 1899 by renowned architects Walter D. Bliss and Walter Paville (Saint Francis Hotel, James Flood Mansion, Geary Theater) for Walter Bliss’s parents Elizabeth and Duane “D.L.” Bliss, 2898 Broadway stood at the highest echelons of prestige and was the perfect home for the family who built a large fortune in gold mining, lumber, railroads, Lake Tahoe tourism and were significant players in San Francisco society.

Located at the famed Baker Street stairs, 2898 Broadway has been hailed as a beautifully proportioned and exquisitely detailed essay of Dutch Colonial Revival architecture. The façade is perfectly symmetrical, and while it appears as a two-story house with an attic structure on its Broadway side, the house marches down a steep slope with additional floors visible along the Baker Street steps. The house was used as a location for four major Hollywood motion pictures: Portrait in Black (1960), Jagged Edge (1985), Sweet November (2001), and Blue Jasmine(2013). It is currently on the market, represented by Max Armour and Karen Mendelsohn Gould from Compass and offered for sale for $32M.
Since its inception, the Decorator Showcase has raised over $18 million for the San Francisco University High SchoolFinancial Aid Program. This event allows hundreds of deserving Bay Area students access to a world-class college preparatory education.
Sponsors: San Francisco Decorator Showcase would like to thank the following sponsors: Da Vinci Marble, PACE/Premium Bath and Kitchen, Waterworks, Evolv, Monogram/GE, Perez Construction, Allo Products and more to be announced soon.
