The Painted Ladies - Iconic Row of Victorian Houses

The Painted Ladies are a well-known row of late-19th-century Victorian houses facing Alamo Square Park, frequently cited as an exemplary surviving ensemble of San Francisco's Victorian domestic architecture. The colorful facades and preserved period details make the row a distinctive urban streetscape often used in cultural and media representations of the city. The set of houses remains a functioning residential block and a popular public viewpoint across the park.
