The Neighborhood: Mission Dolores

The Vibe

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.

Art & Culture

With a short walk to major cultural venues, such as the San Francisco Ballet, Opera, and Symphony, as well as the robust nightlife of the Inner Mission, the neighborhood provides residents with numerous cultural opportunities any night of the week.
