Unique Stair Neighborhoods In San Francisco's Backstreets

  • Among other things, San Francisco is known as the hilly city. There are 48 named hills, many of them running up and down various neighborhoods. Some hills are so steep that instead of a paved road, the early city founders built stairways instead. And yes, there are houses located on some of these blocks. They are a very unique hallmark of the city and are fascinating to check out for those wanting to see a more off-the-beaten track version of SF. Here are my top 7!

    Absolutely incredible. I used to live in SF but didn’t know they existed. I’m exhausted just watching the videos. Quite a workout.

      Halloooo! Actually all the China/Vietnam stuff is from the summer :-P I'm just doing the editing verrry slowly. My goal is to publish one summer trip and one SF video a week but I haven't been super successful so it's ending up one a week. Gotta pick up the pace! Thanks for hanging in there despite the content jumping around! 💕

    Really helpful vid! 2006 first year back I wanted to visit the famous wooden staircase to Macondry Lane used in Tales of the City. Foolish me started walking uphill from Fisherman's wharf all the way up steep Taylor Street! I could have just taken a 30 bus on Columbus Ave and walk a few blocks.

    Nice video. Did you know about the Lincoln Steps? At the end of California. Pretty badass

      Thanks for introducing me to it! Beautiful but the climb looks pretty hardcore. Will have to check it out next month when I hit the Lincoln Park golf course.

      I bought a SF stairways book, one of the walks is in this area. I love history so it makes for an extra long excellent experience.

      Zeena the book is San Francisco Stairways walks Urban Exploring 9th edition.
      I just got the book a few days back and realized that it is outdated, some plaques are no longer there and the very first building has changed.
      Good luck

      There are 35 walks spread out across the city. Who know one day we might bump into each other just look for a guy with a Panasonic GH5

    Thank you for the entertaining and informative video. On my last trip, I saw some steps leading into the Marina District on Chestnut St. Do you know the name of those stairs and what neighborhood they connect to?

    • @ZeeneInRealLife
      @ZeeneInRealLife  2 роки тому

      Hmm, Chestnut dead ends at The Presidio to the west (leading into the garden at Lucas Arts complex) and cuts across the northern part of SF to the east ending at the base of Telegraph Hill. Is that maybe what you saw?

    Thanks for showing us the steps! They look like a fun and beautiful workout. However, if you could please refrain from high speed shaky cam in the future, it would be greatly appreciated. It made me motion sick. I had to close my eyes.

      I'm waiting for the one at Salesforce Transit Center to open! That sky terrace should be fantastic. To add me as a friend, click on the speech box icon in the upper right and click "add friends" to get a link you can paste somewhere in the comments. I don't really like this method as it's still pretty public so you can find me on Instagram "Zeene In Real Life" follow me and then DM me. That is much more direct.
