Historically, the Western Addition was first platted during the 1850s as a result of the Van Ness Ordinance. This large tract encompassed some 500 blocks running west from Larkin Street (the city's previous western boundary) to Divisadero street. Hence the name "Western Addition." The area was initially used for small-scale farming, but following the invention of the cable car during the 1870s, the Western Addition developed as a Victorian streetcar suburb. It survived the 1906 San Francisco earthquake with its Victorian-style buildings largely intact.
Today, the term Western Addition is generally used in two ways: to denote the development's original geographic area, or to denote the eastern portion of the neighborhood (also called the Fillmore District) that was redeveloped in the 1950s.

AI in Healthcare: Will the Reality Match the Hype?
The 14th annual Lundberg Institute Lecture features Robert Wachter of UCSF and his predictions about what advances artificial intelligence will make, and will not make, in health care.
Why has health care not undergone the kind of digital transformation that has completely remade industries ranging from retail to entertainment to travel? Wachter will discuss health care’s bumpy road to digital nirvana, and why, to paraphrase Hemingway, generative AI may lead to medicine’s “gradually, then suddenly” moment.
Join us for a preview of the ideas Dr. Wachter discusses in his latest book on AI and health care.
This program is made possible by the Lundberg Institute.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PANHANDLE & THE WESTERN ADDITION, Bonnie Spindler, The Victorian Specialist
Imagine San Francisco when it was just past its infancy. It had survived the ship-building boom and the gold and silver mining rushes. As the original city started to get denser, the city council decided it was time to annex more land into the city itself. They incorporated the lands west of Divisadero, a largely undeveloped series of sand dunes. Appropriately, they called it the Western Addition. At roughly the same time, they decided to create a 1000-acre park to rival Central Park in NYC. It was to have a Panhandle that stretched to Van Ness. When the citizens discovered that this plan would require the brand new Oak Street Fire Station and Sacred Heart Cathedral to be torn down, they protested, so the Panhandle ends where it does today, Baker St.
