Glen Park, San Francisco, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glen Park is a small neighborhood in San Francisco, California. It is located at the
southern edge of the hills in the interior of the city, to the south of Diamond Heights and
Noe Valley, west of Bernal Heights, and east of Glen Canyon Park. The intersection of
Diamond Street and Bosworth Street is generally considered the center of the
neighborhood. Because of Glen Park's small size and mom and pop stores, restaurants,
and saloons, the neighborhood is often described as having a village atmosphere. The
neighborhood is served by a small storefront branch of the San Francisco Public Library.
[1] Many residents have noticed the beginnings of a change in the atmosphere of the
neighborhood, possibly starting at a fire which burnt down the Diamond Super grocer and
market in the late 1990s. Since then many "trendy" new stores have moved in, and
recently with the construction of a large supermarket/office/apartment complex in the lot
where Diamond Super once stood many of the smaller stores which once defined the
neighborhood are closing down. It has been speculated by some residents that Glen Park
will soon shift from being a predominantly working-class family area to a more yuppie
demographic.
Transportation
Interstate 280 and the Glen Park BART station are both located at the southern edge of
the neighborhood. Glen Park is served by the Muni bus lines 23, 26, 35, 44 and 52 plus
the J Church Muni Metro line.
