"NOT the same as Van Ness!"

Once Van Ness crosses the line at Market/Mission Streets, it becomes SOUTH
Van Ness - and takes on a whole new persona. While Van Ness is a major arterial through San Francisco (and just about the only way to get from the Golden Gate to the rest of Highway 101), South Van Ness runs through the residential area of the Mission District until it ends at Cesar Chavez (still known to old-timers as "Army Street"). South Van Ness holds the reputation of having two gas stations with the least expensive gas in the city - at 16th and 17th Streets. There aren't a lot of traffic lights on South Van Ness - but there are a number of four-way stops. Take your time and check out the houses!
