Hugged by water, blessed by nature, brimming with cool

restaurants—the City by the Bay is eternally appealing, but

now it offers fresh reasons to visit. Freeways are morphing

into gardens, comfort food’s going haute, and hoods that

visitors used to steer clear of are suddenly the place to be.

As an East Coast transplant who’s put down roots in San Francisco, I’ve come to love my adopted home for many reasons, not the least of which is how it has weathered the recession. It’s not just great food and culture that give San Francisco its allure; there’s

something about the mentality here, a stacking of priorities that puts pleasure near the top and hours worked toward the bottom.

Ever since the fi rst large wave of settlers arrived during the 1849 gold rush, this city by the bay has thrived on the twin philosophies of optimism and entrepreneurialism. More recently, the roller coaster of dot-com booms and busts left San Franciscans well pre-pared for the latest downturn. For many, it wasn’t the fi rst fortune they lost, and it might not be the last. While my old neighbors in New York were wondering how they’d ever rescue their 401(k)s, my new friends took a deep breath, put down the quarterly report, and went for a hike.

Because San Francisco—like its denizens—is ceaselessly reinventing itself, it’s as satisfying to visit the 13th time as the third. Visitors who a decade ago might have steered clear of seedy Hayes Valley will now fi nd it rife with boutiques and home to a burgeon-ing urban farm movement. Some of the city’s hottest restaurants are fl ourishing in the unlikely shadow of the Giants’ stadium,

AT&T Park, and even parts of the waterfront have been deemed cool enough for locals to trawl during happy hour.

For those visitors seeking more than a stroll down Fisherman’s Wharf or a cable car ride up Powell Street, here’s a primer of San Francisco neighborhoods to visit now.

UNION SQUAREThe commercial heart of the city earned its moniker when it served as the locus of pro-Union demonstrations in the Civil War era. In a similar spirit of activism, Union Square today is often fi lled with pro-Tibet rallies or antiwar protests. There’s nothing unique about the big-name designer shops and department stores lining the square, which is why locals prefer Maiden Lane, a narrow alley with a European feel just off the plaza. By day, the street is closed to traffi c and fi lled with café tables, where one can refuel between shops. “When I opened this store, my fi rst thought was Maiden Lane,” says Peter Walsh, owner of 4-year-old Manika Jewelry. “It’s literally off the beaten path and it attracts people who like the different, the unusual, the unique.” The pieces he sells, many by local designers, are largely made from reclaimed precious metals. Another homegrown standout along the lane is Glory Chen, whose fashionable yet comfortable shoes typify San Francisco style.
