Living inHayes Valley.

Hayes Valley sits just west of the Civic Center, centered on Hayes Street. The War Memorial Opera House and Davies Symphony Hall are at its eastern edge, and the Painted Ladies on Alamo Square are a short walk to the northwest.

The neighborhood changed after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake damaged the elevated Central Freeway that once ran through it. The freeway was taken down and replaced by Octavia Boulevard, with Patricia's Green, a small park and gathering place, at its heart. Hayes Street is now one of the city's best-known shopping streets, with independent boutiques, restaurants and cafés.

What you'll find here

Victorian and Edwardian flats, many of them divided into condominiums, alongside newer condominium buildings near Octavia Boulevard and Market Street.

Who it suits

Buyers who want to walk to restaurants, the performing arts and transit, and are happy with a flat or condominium rather than a house.
