Vibrant culture & history

Although a relatively small neighborhood, Haight-Ashbury is not short on culture! Known for its legendary 1967 “Summer of Love”, Haight-Ashbury helped to launch the careers of psychedelic rock bands like the Grateful Dead. It later served as a center for comedy and hosted up-and-coming performers like Robin Williams and Whoopi Goldberg. Today, the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair still attracts thousands of people to the neighborhood.

Beautiful outdoor spaces

San Francisco is known for its natural beauty, and Haight-Ashbury is right in the midst of it.
