Cole Valley, San Francisco, California

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cole Valley is a small neighborhood in San Francisco. Its boundaries are usually considered to be Stanyan Street and the Sutro Forest to the west, Tank Hill to the south, Clayton Street to the east, and Waller Street to the north.

It is very close to Haight-Ashbury, and is sometimes considered a sub-area of that district.

Cole Valley grew up around the streetcar stop at the entrance to the Sunset Tunnel at the intersection of Carl and Cole Streets. That intersection is still the center of the neighborhood's small business district, and the N Judah light rail line still stops there.

Cole Valley was popular with dot-commers during the 2000-2001 dot com boom. Craig Newmark (founder of Craigslist) is a recent former resident, and is still an habitue of Cole Valley's cafes.
