"McAllister Street near Divisadero"
I've lived here for almost 10 years and the transformation has been tremendous. While it used to be known more as a "rough around the edges" 'hood, bordering "Western Addition," (despite its proximity to the historic Alamo Square), it's now surfing the "NOPA" wave. What a little rebranding can do for a neighborhood!
Now, Divisadero at the McAllister cross, heading south to about Oak, has become one of San Francisco's hippest neighborhoods, sprinkled with quirky store fronts, fine cuisine, health food grocery and cool coffee shops. (Even an EXCELLENT Pilates boutique called Studio Evolve on Lyon) And of course, there's no shortage of visual delights with breathtaking Victorian buildings featuring their intricate facades and unique color palates surrounding the park, including the most famous of them all--the Painted Ladies.
I feel blessed to call this pocket of town my home!
