Ingleside Terraces, San Francisco

Ingleside Terraces is an affluent residential neighborhood of approximately 750 detached homes built at the former location of the Ingleside Racetrack in the southwestern part of San Francisco. It is adjacent to the Balboa Terrace, Ingleside, Merced Heights and Lakeside neighborhoods, and is bordered by Ocean Avenue to the north, Ashton Avenue to the east, Holloway Avenue to the south and Junipero Serra Boulevard to the west. The main local event that occurs is the Annual Sundial Park Picnic, in which the local residents host bicycle, chariot, and wagon racing. There is a large sundial located on Entrada Court, surrounded by the oval-shaped Urbano Drive, which was once a horse race track. Ingleside Terraces is one of nine master-planned residence parks in San Francisco.In 1910, Joseph A. Leonard's Urban Realty Improvement Company bought the track and set about turning the land into a residence park. By 1912, Ingleside Terraces had opened, with Urbano Drive paved on the loop of the old racetrack. Like other suburban developments built in the United States at the time, Ingleside Terraces was explicitly designed to be a segregated whites-only neighborhood, and written into the property deed was a section reading: "That no person of African, Japanese, Chinese, or of any Mongolian descent shall be allowed to purchase, own, lease, or occupy said real property or any part thereof." The 1948 Supreme Court case Shelley v. Kraemer declared racial restrictions were illegal and unenforceable in courts, though the restrictions continued to be enforced socially. In 1957, assistant district attorney Cecil F. Poole moved into the neighborhood with his family as the first non-white residents. The following year, on June 5, 1958, other neighborhood residents burned a cross on the front lawn of the Pooles' house.
