San Francisco Neighborhoods - Union Square Real Estate
For those who come to San Francisco to shop, this is
where to start. Union Square, the hub of the City's commercial center,
is the home of one of San Francisco's oldest patches of greenery. It
was named in tribute to the frequent demonstrations in support of the
Union cause before the start of the Civil War. Today, the area around
Union Square, primarily Post, Stockton, Geary, Powell, and Sutter streets,
is more of a tribute to the power of shopping. Every major department
store is within easy walking distance of the square. It is also a center
for exclusive couture and the highest-quality fashions. Sutter, Post
and Geary streets are filled with fine-art galleries. Major hotels are
clustered nearby, making Union Square a convenient destination for visitors.
This is also San Francisco's main theater district, where traveling
Broadway and off-Broadway shows come to town, usually for limited runs.
Some of the theaters present local productions as well.
