One of the most popular neighborhoods in San Francisco is the Mission District. Its population of working-class immigrants was largely made up of Mexicans and Central Americans. However, gentrification has transformed the demographics of the Mission District. Other neighborhoods with gentrification trends include Noe Valley to the southwest and Bernal Heights to the south. These neighborhoods are mostly residential with scenic views of downtown San Francisco. Here you’ll find a wide range of dining, entertainment, and shopping options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For gourmet gifts, there are many great places to shop in San Francisco. The Union Square and Sacramento Street neighborhoods have plenty of shops selling quality clothing and accessories. If you’re looking for something more unusual, you can also visit the Castro neighborhood. Several local brands are represented in the Castro neighborhood, including Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Michael Kors, Levi’s, and Hollister. You can also find quality cosmetics at Tigerlily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visiting the City for the holidays? If you’re looking for unusual gifts that’ll make a memorable impression, head to a local florist, Rebekah Northway. Northway’s holiday shop is opening November 11, and she’s a native of New Mexico. Her unique chile ristra, which doubles as a decorative piece, can also be used as a cooking tool. This piece can cost $50. Other holiday items include botanical ornaments, which range in price from $15 to $25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you’re in San Francisco, check out the local art scene. The museum of modern art has been shabby for years, but a new enamel pin commemorating its original exterior evokes the art’s vibrant colors. Similarly, you can pick up a cozy throw from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Made of thick, organic cotton yarns, this throw is great for chilly evenings in the city. It’s also a great way to show off your taste for art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chocolate lovers can also find unique gifts in the city. Souvenirs in the city include artisan chocolates, gilded statuettes, and decorative plates on stands. If you’re on a budget, look for artisan chocolate shops. A popular artisan chocolate shop in San Francisco is Boudin, which has been producing its signature loaves since 1849. Ghirardelli Chocolate Company is another popular gift. With over 130 years of history, Ghirardelli makes classic chocolate squares and other gourmet treats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1906, a major earthquake struck San Francisco. The shaking caused buildings to collapse, igniting gas lines. The inferno spread rapidly, destroying nearly one-quarter of the city. The Presidio Artillery Corps responded to the blaze by dynamiting blocks of buildings and creating firebreaks. The fire was extinguished by the end of the day, but the damage was significant. Approximately 8 billion dollars was lost in the blaze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of San Francisco is the oldest institution of higher learning in San Franciso. It is also the oldest university west of the Mississippi River. Golden Gate University is a nonsectarian co-educational university located in the Financial District. The Academy of Art University is an arts school with over 13,000 students. The San Francisco Art Institute was founded in 1871. Located north of Potrero Hill, the California College of the Arts offers courses in fine arts and architecture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
