Talk:Haight-Ashbury

message: The name of this page is incorect. The neighborhood is much more commonly known as the upper haight or sometimes the park district which is the police precinct. I don't believe Haight Ashbury is correct for this neighborhood name.Paul E. Ester 14:12, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If this page shows up when one puts in "94117" into wikipedia's search engine, than it should be named "The Haight".  No Ashbury or Upper.  94117 encompasses more than just the area this page is dedicated to.  I write this as someone that lives on Divisadero in the Lower Haight.  If there's another way for 94117 to redirect to the city of San Francisco page, that would work, too.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.202.124.130 (talk) 03:19, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

text: I live in the Lower Haight.  The beginning of the article, as I found it, said that "Upper Haight" refers not to the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, but to the area in the hills above.  I've never heard anyone give "Upper Haight" this meaning; rather, I always understand people to mean "Haight-Ashbury," especially when distinguishing between my neighborhood and the more famous one up Haight Street.  I can imagine, however, that people who live on the hillside might give it this meaning.  I've modified the opening paragraph to reflect both meanings for "Upper Haight."  Comments?

thread_title:  Name of this page 

message: the part about the gap is somewhat misleading. the haight-asbury gap was the first of the chain and was intended for the counterculture--hence the name "gap", as in "generation gap". Therefore, the gap's presence does not represent the neighborhood's "slide into mainstream", but rather the neighborhood as incubator to some commercial trademarks, or something. The same could probably be said about the ben & jerry's.
:I came to this discussion page with the same thought.  How do you think the article can be changed appropriately? - Slow Graffiti 19:45, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Anybody have a map showing where this district is, showing a shaded area? That would make a good image for the article. --Ragemanchoo (talk) 04:26, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

message: The article needs provide a reliable source confirming that the difference in the names Upper Haight vs. Lower Haight comes from elevation and not from street numbers on Haight (higher street numbers vs. lower street numbers). Both causes are possible in San Francisco English. Thisisnotatest (talk) 22:52, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
