A neighborhood of Victorians along Divisadero Street, between the Panhandle and the Western Addition.
NoPa stands for North of the Panhandle, the blocks just north of the Panhandle, the narrow strip of park that runs east from Golden Gate Park. For years it was considered part of the Western Addition.
These are blocks of Victorians and Edwardians, two, three, and four-unit buildings, flats, and single-family homes. Because so many of those small buildings were never split into condominiums, NoPa has a lot of tenancy-in-common, or TIC, ownership alongside condos and houses.
Divisadero has the Nopa restaurant, Bi-Rite, coffee, and bars. A block south, the Panhandle has a tree-lined path for running, walking, and biking, and the Wiggle bike route passes through on its way to the park.
Parking is tight, and many homes are flats or TICs rather than single-family houses.
NoPa is not on the Muni Metro. It is served by buses. The 5-Fulton and 5R rapid run along the north edge, the 24-Divisadero runs along Divisadero, and the 21-Hayes, 31-Balboa, and 43-Masonic also serve the area.
The Panhandle path is a flat, tree-lined route into Golden Gate Park, and the Wiggle bike route passes through the area on flatter streets.

Many small buildings were never split into condos, so a lot of ownership here is tenancy-in-common, which carries shared mortgages, partnership agreements, and different financing than a condo or house.
On older blocks the private sewer lateral and aging service lines are common report items.

TIC stands for tenancy-in-common. Many small Victorian and Edwardian buildings here were never split into condos, so buyers often purchase a share of the whole building with the right to occupy one unit, frequently on a shared mortgage. TICs finance differently than condos.
