About

NOPA

NOPA — North of the Panhandle — has transformed over the past two decades from a transitional neighborhood into one of the most desirable and vibrant areas in the city. The Panhandle, a linear park that stretches east from Golden Gate Park, provides a green buffer and beloved running/biking path. Divisadero Street is the main strip: a dense, walkable corridor of acclaimed restaurants, cocktail bars, coffee shops, and music venues that buzzes on any given evening. The housing stock is largely Victorian and Edwardian flats with beautiful original details. NOPA attracts food and design professionals, young families, and anyone who wants a fully walkable, culture-rich neighborhood at a slight discount to Pacific Heights.
