SoMa Overview
See a San Francisco Neighborhood Map showing the South of Market area. (Map has click and zoom functions.)
The SoMa District in San Francisco is characterized by its industrial past. Having moved through a wave of gentrification and a dot.com boom in the 90s, the South of Market neighborhood is now home to a vast array of artistic and cultural spaces. Warehouses still populate the area, but many have been converted to offices and live-work spaces. The district seems to be in a constant state of development -- and a walk through SoMa will take you through multiple construction zones and newly carved niches of restaurants, bars, galleries and clubs.
