Alamo Square Park is one of San Francisco's most iconic landmarks, best known for its famed "Painted Ladies" row houses along Postcard Row, which were showcased in the opening credits for the 1990s sitcom Full House. The park, which has been featured in major feature films such as The Invasion of the Body Snatchers and The Five-Year Engagement, is located within the city's Alamo Square Historic District, known for its unique residential architecture that was once home to noted author Alice Walker. A dual-level playground at the neighborhood park makes a great play space for young children, while an off-leash dog area lets visitors frolic free with their four-legged friends. Unique attractions include the park's Shoe Garden, which repurposes discarded heels and boots as landscape art.
