Seward Street Slides, Concrete slides in Noe Valley, San Francisco, United States.
Two parallel cement slides run down a slope in a mini-park, with one track steeper than the other for different sliding experiences.
The slides were constructed in 1973 following a design competition won by fourteen-year-old Kim Clark, replacing plans for a large apartment complex.
Local residents' successful protests in the 1960s led to the creation of this recreational space, influencing city legislation on open space requirements.
The slides operate Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM, and visitors should bring cardboard pieces to enhance their sliding experience.
Each slide features a landing area filled with sand at the bottom to provide softer landings for riders completing their descent.
