The Panhandle from Clayton Street

The Panhandle is a park in San Francisco, California that forms a panhandle with Golden Gate Park. It is long but very narrow, being three-quarters of a mile long but only one block wide. Fell Street borders it to the north, Oak Street to the south, and Baker Street to the east. The Haight-Ashbury neighborhood lies to the south of it. Only two streets run through it, Stanyan Street at the western end between it and Golden Gate Park, and Masonic Street through the middle. Two paths run through it from Golden Gate Park to Baker Street, one for pedestrians and one for bicycles. There are basketball courts and a playground in the section between Stanyan and Masonic Streets.
