Buena Vista Park
Address: Haight St & Buena Vista E
San Francisco, CA 94101
Notes: Founded in 1867 Buena Vista Park is actually the oldest park in San Francisco. Once a bare hill that mirrored the original dune and brush landscape of the western half of the city, due to a concerted tree planting effort by John McLaren, the famous superintendent of Golden Gate Park, Buena Vista is now one of the most wooded areas in San Francisco. From the occasional lookouts and windows through the tree canopy you can see how this park got its name—there are some great views. It’s worth making your way to the top of the hill for the view of the Golden Gate Bridge, and the view of St. Ignatius Church from the western rim of the park, perched on a hill with the rolling Marin headlands in the background, reminds you how San Francisco got the reputation as the most European American city.
