Alta Plaza Park

Parks, Pacific Heights


Fodor's Review:

Landscape architect John McLaren, who also created Golden Gate Park, designed Alta Plaza in 1910, modeling its terracing on the Grand Casino in Monte Carlo, Monaco. From the top you can see Marin to the north, downtown to the east, Twin Peaks to the south, and Golden Gate Park to the west. Little ones like the small, enclosed playground at the top; everywhere else is dog territory.
