Search this neighborhoodLakeshore occupies San Francisco's southwest corner, from Sloat Boulevard and Eucalyptus Drive south to the San Mateo County line, and from 19th Avenue west to the Pacific Ocean. SF Planning's Lakeshore analysis neighborhood includes the residential districts of Lakeshore and Merced Manor, the Stonestown area, the Parkmerced apartment community, and San Francisco State University. A large share of its land is public open space and institutional use, including Lake Merced, TPC Harding Park, Fort Funston, and the San Francisco Zoo.
Housing ranges from detached single-family homes in the Lakeshore and Merced Manor tracts to the garden apartments and towers of Parkmerced, plus student housing at SF State. Zoning reflects that mix: P (Public) covers the lake, golf course, zoo, and university; RH-1(D) governs the detached-house blocks; Parkmerced has its own special-use districts (PM-R, PM-MU1, PM-MU2, PM-OS, PM-CF, PM-S); and Stonestown Galleria falls under C-2 and the S-MU Stonestown Mixed-Use district. Lowell High School sits on Eucalyptus Drive near the northern edge.
