About Glen Park Neighborhood

Glen Park is a residential neighborhood in San Francisco, California, located south of Twin Peaks and adjacent to Glen Canyon Park.

The neighborhood is nestled at the southeastern edge of San Francisco's central hills, the San Miguel Range. It includes Gold Mine Hill, a portion of Fairmount Hill to the east, Martha Hill to the south, as well as their southern- and eastern-facing slopes. The neighborhood's streets follow the hill's contours to a small commercial district ("the Village") at the intersection of Chenery and Diamond streets.

History of Glen Park Neighborhood

Glen Park's initial named streets were mapped in 1872 on land previously owned by milch rancher (ie, dairy farmer) George Ulshofer as early as 1859 or 1860. The route of the Old San Jose Road (also known as the El Camino Real) through the district would become the future streets of Diamond and Chenery, so the route was already well recognized and regularly trafficked.

Transit through Glen Park began with the San Francisco and San Mateo Electric Railway, which provided access to the city's southern suburbs. When the San Francisco & SM was purchased by the San Francisco Municipal Railway in 1916, it improved transit even more. In 1927, the San Francisco Public Library created a branch. Today, transit is supplied by the Glen Park BART station, the Muni Metro's J Church line, and multiple Muni bus lines. The Interstate 280 is also close by.

Real estate in Glen Park Neighborhood

It was Baldwin who came up with the name of "Glen Park" for the district. The first use of “Glen Park” was when Baldwin announced the organization of the Glen Park Company in 1897, with the sole purpose of opening and managing a zoological gardens. His 145-acre pleasuring grounds and zoo became known as Glen Park and the Mission Zoo. Opening in 1898, it attracted 8,000 to 15,000 people each weekend for its vaudeville shows, daring aeronautic displays, sporting events, and animal exhibits.

After the pleasure grounds were a success, Baldwin began auctioning off his residence lots, Glen Park Terrace, which were placed along Glen Avenue (today's Chenery Street between Diamond and Elk Streets). Baldwin relinquished all of his assets in 1901, with much of the land being transferred to the California Title Company and the Crocker Estate, due to difficulties experienced in the management of Glen Park and the Mission Zoo, as well as poor sales of Glen Park Terrace home lots.
