Tenderloin Part I
Neighborhood: Tenderloin
Description
The Tenderloin began as St. Ann’s Valley, a quaint village in the sand dunes that grew into a middle- and upper-class neighborhood filled with single family homes, churches, and schools sprinkled with the mansions of the very-rich. By the 1890s, the east half had transformed, becoming a hotel, entertainment and vice district that drew fun-seekers by the truckload. You could fill volumes with the stories of the Tenderloin including famous madams, and a whole lot of gambling. Hear about the wild exploits of past Tenderloin and the work being done to move it into the future. It’s an experience you won’t soon forget.
