From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The cross atop Mt. Davidson
Mount Davidson is the highest natural point in San Francisco, California, with an
estimated elevation between 927 and 938 feet. It is located near the center of the city,
south of Twin Peaks and Portola Boulevard and to the west of Diamond Heights and
Glen Park. It dominates the southeastern view from most of major artery Portola Blvd.
Mt. Davidson's most notable feature, aside from its height, is the 103 foot concrete cross
situated at the peak of the hill. It is the site of a yearly prayer service, performed on
Easter, when the cross is illuminated with colored lights.
Mout Davidson Park tops the hill, located between Myra Way to the east, Dalewood Way
to the southwest and Juanita Way to the north. Public transportation to the park is
provided by the 36 Teresita Muni line, which stops at the Dalewood Way & Myra Way
entrance to the park.
The neighborhoods around Mount Davidson Park may also be called Mount Davidson,
although they are also known as Miraloma Park, to the east, and Sherwood Forest, to the
southwest. City College of San Francisco is located just south of the peak.
