The Castro
About The Castro
The Castro曾是19世纪时被称为Eureka Valley的农田。Castro Street以José Castro命名,他是墨西哥时期Alta California的总督。1887年,Market Street Cable Railway延伸至此山谷,引发了一场住房建设热潮,建成的维多利亚式建筑至今仍矗立在街区中。数十年来,这里一直是工人阶级社区,居民多为斯堪的纳维亚裔和爱尔兰裔。由Timothy Pflueger设计的Castro Theatre于1922年在Castro Street开业。
该地区在1960年代末和1970年代初成为同性恋社区。二战期间及战后经由旧金山退伍的军人留在了这座城市,租金低廉,维多利亚式住房充足。同性恋居民购买并翻新了这些房屋,并在Castro Street沿街开设了各类商铺。
Harvey Milk于1973年在575 Castro Street开设了Castro Camera,并在店内开展他的竞选活动。1977年他当选为市参事会(Board of Supervisors)成员,成为全美最早的公开同性恋民选官员之一。1978年11月27日,他与市长George Moscone在市政厅(City Hall)遇刺身亡。
