About Haight-Ashbury

Haight-Ashbury is the San Francisco district named for the corner of Haight and Ashbury streets, one of the main centers of the 1960s counterculture. You walk Haight Street past boutiques, bookstores, cafes and Amoeba Music, set in a former bowling alley, and look at the Victorian and Edwardian houses on the side streets. The house at 710 Ashbury St, once home to the Grateful Dead, is a private residence. Golden Gate Park borders the district on the west.
