The Neighborhood
Once primarily a Latino enclave, the neighborhood changed with the rise of the dot-com companies in the 1990s. Industrial warehouses were converted into open-air workspaces, drawing young professionals who desired to live close to work. The oldest building in San Francisco, Mission Dolores, founded in 1776, still stands at 16th Street and Dolores Street.

Lifestyle
The center of the Mission Dolores neighborhood is Dolores Park, which residents call San Francisco’s public backyard. The popular hillside spot spans two blocks and offers a plethora of outdoor activities, including basketball, a handful of tennis courts and a soccer field. On sunny weekends, hundreds of people flock to the park to enjoy the sun, listen to live music, barbeque with friends, walk their dogs and play a myriad of lawn games.

The Market
A few new condos have been rising alongside buildings dating from the Gold Rush and Victorian eras. Relatively little housing has been built in recent years, as many residents continue fighting against development over fears of gentrification.
