The following year saw the first actual parade dubbed “Age of Aquarius Parade” down Folsom Street with floats from various groups. The day following the march, hundreds attended a “gay-in” at Speedway Meadows in Golden Gate Park. Prior to The Castro, the neighborhood now known as “ Polk Gulch” was one of the city’s first gay neighborhoods. Pride month began in SF when the San Francisco Gay Liberation marched down Polk Street on June 27th, 1970. Pride Month is an extraordinary time in our city, so we’ve decided to look back through the last 50 years at the monumental events that have occurred during this month. Have you noticed our new signs celebrating the 50th year of #PrideMonth in #SF? You can find these colorful new designs proudly displayed in front of Trinity residential properties across #SanFrancisco! ❤️?Ī post shared by Trinity SF on at 1:42pm PDT
