What neighborhood is 184 Pixley St located in?

Cow Hollow, San Francisco

Cow Hollow is old-time vernacular for the valley lying west of Van Ness Ave. between Russian Hill and the Presidio.

In post-Gold Rush days, this district was a green dale watered by the surrounding hills and small creeks seeking the Bay. The first dairy was established there in 1861, and 30 others followed. Soon hundreds of cows shared the grasslands with wild ducks, quail and rabbits.

Today, the name designates only Union Street area between 1600 to 2200 blocks. This neighborhood of ex-cow country where shoppers have replaced the milkmaids and cash registers ring more briskly than the cow bells ever did.
