The 31 blocks of the Tenderloin District are a microcosm of San Francisco, peopled by immigrants and iconoclasts, artists and activists, sinners and saints. All are welcome to join us in telling its story.

Mission

Reviews
Aftering living in the city back in the 70s & 80s the Tenderloin District didn't have a good reputation. Coming back and visiting this museum was eye opening for me. You truly see how this part of the city came about and developed over the last 100+ years. You get a deep appreciation for what they created then and then go outside and see how the city wants to bring back sophistication and quality boutique hotels. I would highly recommend visiting and there's a small entrance fee.
