Union Square

Union Square

Historical landmark
3 blks
Union Square is the heartbeat of San Francisco itself -- ever changing, eternally celebrating, yet firmly rooted in its glorious past. The Dewey Monument on the right. Two years before the Gold Rush, in 1847, Jasper O'Farrell created a design for San Francisco, with Union Square as a public plaza. By the 1880s, it was a fashionable residential district, and in 1903, the towering monument was added, topped by the bronze goddess Victory, modeled after Alma de Bretteville Spreckels, known for her enormous influence in the San Francisco art community.

Yerba Buena Center & Gardens

Yerba Buena Center & Gardens

Recreation
1 mi
Yerba Buena Gardens is a collection of urban mixed-use spaces and structures that include both private uses (i.e., commercial retail properties) and public uses (i.e., cultural facilities, performance venues, recreational venues, and significant amounts of public open space with garden areas, plazas, children’s play areas, artwork, a historic carousel, and fountains). The Gardens function as a self-financing entity, where surrounding developments are required to financially support its operation and maintenance. Combined integrally with the Moscone Convention Center, this mixture of multiple uses makes the Gardens a unique and vital urban oasis for visitors, residents of the Yerba Buena neighborhood, and the entire City.
