Welcome to West Portal!
The West Portal neighborhood in San Francisco is home to about 2200 dwellings and a three block commercial district with a first-run movie theater, interesting shops, a multitude of services and great restaurants. GWPNA has been the neighborhood association since 1974, and has participated in and initiated many beneficial changes on the Avenue over the years. We welcome new members at any time who are interested in the vibrant life of this community in the "Western Heart" of San Francisco.
