Welcome to Duboce Triangle
One of the smallest neighborhoods in San Francisco, Duboce Triangle is known as the “geographic and functional crossroads” that connect key neighborhoods via every Muni train passing through either above or below ground. Residents and visitors alike delight in the bevy of wonderful outdoor green spaces in the highly sought-after triangle flanked by Castro Street, Duboce Avenue, and Market Street. The energy in this microneighborhood is vibrant thanks in part to the diverse group of residents that call Duboce Triangle home, including affluent families and young professionals. Aside from the neighborhood’s boutique shops, Duboce Park’s allure stems from the historic Duboce Park—founded in 1900 and now known as a dog-loving park popular with residents of all ages.
