In a recent government meeting, San Francisco County officials discussed the naming of two streets in the Hunters View neighborhood, a significant step in the ongoing revitalization of the area. Residents collaborated with the John Stewart Company, the developer behind the Hope SF project, to select the name "Memory Lane." This name honors the contributions of past and present community members who have supported the revitalization efforts.
The decision to continue Fairfax Avenue as part of the street naming reflects the community's desire for continuity as the project progresses through its phases. The selection process involved extensive community engagement, including an online survey and door-to-door outreach conducted from late 2023 through 2025. This approach ensured that residents had a voice in the naming process, fostering a sense of ownership and connection to their neighborhood.
During the meeting, officials emphasized the importance of these developments, noting that a temporary certificate of occupancy is expected by early 2026. This milestone will allow residents to move into their new homes and receive mail, marking a significant step forward in the revitalization project.
The meeting concluded without public comment, but officials expressed gratitude for the community's involvement in the naming process. They highlighted the importance of remembering those who have contributed to the neighborhood's history and the ongoing efforts to include residents in decisions that affect their lives.
As the Hunters View project continues to unfold, the community remains at the forefront of discussions, ensuring that their voices are heard and their history is honored.
