DETAILS
Hayes Valley is one of San Francisco’s most eclectic neighborhoods, with some of the city’s best boutique shopping, fine dining, and cultural venues. The area is close to tech shuttles and public transit, and it’s brimming with world-class culture.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
A mixture of world-renowned cultural establishments, like the San Francisco Ballet, Opera, and Symphony, and lively, one-of-a-kind restaurants, Hayes Valley took off after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake damaged the Central Freeway, leading to removing the ramps at Franklin and Gough streets. A small park called Patricia’s Green took their place, now home to a playground, inventive sculptures, occasional food trucks, and an outdoor movie theater.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The mix of new and old, the cultural history, and the central location blend to make Hayes Valley a destination for relaxing, shopping and entertainment. Hayes Valley’s central location near City Hall gives residents some of the easiest access to public transit, Highway 101, and the Bay Bridge.
LYFESTYLE
On weekends, residents wander over to Patricia’s Green for food truck fare and a movie. For a refined night on the town, they snag reservations at the ever-popular Hayes Street Grill for sustainably harvested seafood or Jardiniere, Traci Des Jardins’ signature French restaurant. After dinner and a short stroll, they arrive at the San Francisco Ballet, Opera, or Symphony for an evening of classic entertainment.
THE MARKET
Homes in Hayes Valley are predominantly newer condominiums and updated Victorians. More than a dozen mixed-use developments are in the works, bringing new residents and energy to one of the city’s fastest-changing neighborhoods.
