30 Seward Street, san francisco
Seward Street slides are the two lanes of slippery downhill slides in a small park in the Noe Valley neighborhood in San Francisco. The slides represent the triumphant of neighborhood activism with a fascinating history. In 1963, this place was an empty lot with the development plans to build an apartment complex. Local residents protested, including staging a bulldozer-defying sit-in resulting in a change in the zoning laws and the land reserved for a small community park, including these slides.
