Pioneer Park Coit Tower, 1 Telegraph Hill Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94133 Last Updated: 03/13/2025 |
|
Pioneer Park, the five-acre park that surrounds Coit Tower, was created as a result of a great storm. In 1870, torrential rain and high winds destroyed the old signal station at the summit of Telegraph Hill, leaving four hilltop lots vacant. | |
| Concerned that some non-civic-minded person would buy the historic site, in 1876 a group of businessmen purchased the land and donated it to the city, stipulating that it be maintained forever as a public park. They named it Pioneer Park. | |
