S.F. Streets: 11 historic districts of SF
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: San Francisco is a relatively young city but even so, it has 11 districts that are considered historical.
    You may want to take a look...

    1) Bush Str/Cottage Row, since 1991 - Cottage Row (between Bush and Sutter, parallel to Fillmore and Webster)
    2) Jackson Square, since 1972 - Jackson, Pacific, Washington, Montgomery, etc.
    3) Webster Street, since 1981 - Webster, Washington, etc.
    4) Northeast Waterfront, since 1983 - Battery, Sansome, Green, Vallejo, etc.
    5) Alamo Square, since 1984 - Fulton, McAllister, Grove, Steiner, Scott, etc.
    6) Liberty Hill, since 1985 - Valencia, Guerrero, 20th Street, 21st Street, etc.
    7) Telegraph Hill, since 1986- Filbert Steps, Greenwich, Union, Montgomery, etc.
    8) Blackstone Court, since 1987 - Blackstone Court (off Franklin near Lombard)
    9) South End District, since 1990 - Townsend, Brannan, 2nd Street, etc.
    10) Civic Center, since 1996 - McAllister, Grove, Van Ness, Larkin, Polk, etc.
    11) Dogpatch, since 2003 - Third Street, Mariposa, Tubbs, I-280

    I`ll try to explore them too and create separate pages for all 11 of them.
