The "official" elevation is 60 feet, traditionally measured at City Hall.

However, actual elevations in the City vary from 0 feet (at sea level) to over 750 feet at Mt. Sutro.

Why do you imply Mt. Sutro is the highest elevation in SF when you should know darn well that Twin peaks especially the South Twin peak is 922 feet.

I also want to note that Stern Grove may be below sea level but I'm not absolutely sure about it though I barely recall that I think I once read 50 years ago that it is below sea level.

The San Francisco County Highpoint is Mount Davidson at 927 feet.
