Filbert Street and Leavenworth and others.

Sony Europe’s iconic 2005 bouncing balls TV commercial for its Bravia LCD televisions was shot in San Francisco at Leavenworth Street & Filbert Street, 22nd Street & Sanchez Street, and Kearny Street & Broadway. It featured thousands of brightly colored balls bouncing down steep city streets and a soundtrack of Heartbeats by José González.

If this site is correct, the street was Filbert Street in San Francisco.

"The balls came flying down Filbert Street at such high speed that the camera crew needed body armour and riot shields to protect themselves".
