Not just for kids: Fun at Seward Street slides
NOTE: Heard from friends that the area around the slides is trashed and that the slides are closed! I’ll update when they (hopefully) reopen.
Finding hidden stairways is a great San Francisco pastime and these stairs really are pretty hidden. What’s unique about them is that you don’t have to walk all the steps; just slide between the upper and lower level. At the top you’ll find a lush garden that’s maintained by the neighborhood, while the concrete slides in the lower portion are definitely from another time. Hint: Bring plastic trays for the fastest ride. It’s a great treat for kids and at the end a day of sightseeing, shopping, or eating in the Castro or in Noe Valley.

This blog is about those places — beyond the top-10 attractions and far away from the crowds, the malls, and the theme parks.
Enjoy my favorite places. And please share yours!

Great tip Laura. Will have plenty left over from baking Christmas cookies.
