HAIGHT District / Ashbury: Haight Ashbury Dist
  • Tip Rating:
  • San Francisco HAIGHT District / Ashbury
  • Haight & Ashbury District

  • Favorite Thing: The Haight: Known for the Summer of Love, wails of Janis Joplin, cords of Jerry Garcia and the speeches of Timothy Leary. Remember, “Tune in. Turn on. And drop out?” Don’t worry if you don’t, even those who were there don’t remember.

    This led the way to over population, amphetamines, heroin and brutal cops. Soon followed the 70’s.

    HAIGHT District / Ashbury: Haight Ashbury Dist
  • Tip Rating:
  • San Francisco HAIGHT District / Ashbury
  • Haight & Ashbury (Haight Street
  • Fair)
  • by Pounder73

  • Favorite Thing: Where does that leave the Haight today? Somewhere between here and there. You can still hear people whispering “medicinal marijuana” or “hits” while walking down the streets. The local merchants can fulfill your leather needs as well as smoking accessories. The pubs and food joints cater to anyone. You will have to overlook that fact that Ben & Jerry’s and the GAP monopolize the corner of Haight & Ashbury.

     My son and girlfriend bought a very nice old Spanish style house in the Mission area last year and they say the district is coming up! Check out his site at www.comdeymagic.com:):)
