Lower Haight

The Lower Haight lies generally along Haight Street between Divisadero Street and Market Street, and bounded by Oak Street and Duboce Avenue. It is east of the more famous Haight-Ashbury, which is also known as the Upper Haight. The name derives from the significant elevation change as Haight Street passes Buena Vista Park.

The area slopes down from Oak Street (north) toward Duboce (south). Duboce Park, toward the corner of Duboce and Scott, is a grassy park used mainly for dog-walking, along with a children's playground and the Harvey Milk Recreational Arts Building.

Adjacent neighborhoods include the Western Addition to the north; Duboce Triangle to the south; Hayes Valley and the Civic Center to the east; and the Upper Haight to the west.
