Park Merced, San Francisco, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Park Merced is a neighborhood and large apartment complex in San Francisco,
California. It is located south of San Francisco State University, west of 19th Avenue,
and east of Lake Merced and the Harding Park Golf Club. Construction on it started in
the 1940s, but was halted because of WWII. It was completed in the 1950s and was a first
home to many military families returning from the Korean War. Recently, it was owned
by Leona Helmsley until it was sold in 2000. A sister complex was built by the
Metropolitan Life Insurance group as postwar housing. The sister complex, Park La Brea
in Los Angeles, CA, features the same street layout as Park Merced in San Francisco.
