The Painted Ladies, San Francisco, CA
The Painted Ladies in San Francisco are an iconic set of Victorian and Edwardian houses located on Steiner Street, between Hayes and Grove Streets in the Alamo Square Historic District. These beautiful homes were built between 1892 and 1896 and boast a unique combination of Queen Anne , Stick-Eastlake, and Shingle architectural styles.
The term “Painted Ladies” is derived from their pastel color schemes which were designed to stand out against the San Francisco skyline, with many featuring vibrant shades of pink, yellow, sky blue, green and orange. Each home also features intricate woodwork adorning the balconies, gables and cornices of the structures. The impressive structures draw hoards of tourists to the area each year who come to admire their beauty.
Despite their delicate appearance, the Painted Ladies have withstood the test of time due to a combination of historic preservation efforts by local residents as well as modern day building codes established for seismic stability. Many have updated interiors that feature modern amenities like central heating and air conditioning while still maintaining their original exterior appearance.
The Painted Ladies have been featured in numerous films over the years including "Full House" (1987 -1995), "Mrs Doubtfire" (1993), "The Princess Diaries" (2001) and most recently "X-Men: The Last Stand" (2006). They've also been used in advertising campaigns for companies like United Airlines, Kodak and American Express.
Given their picturesque setting atop a hill overlooking downtown San Francisco along with their colorful façades and extensive history, it’s no wonder why The Painted Ladies remain one of America's most beloved tourist attractions today.
