The $500,000 upper section renovation, the second phase of the park renovation, began in January.

About the Neighborhood
Little Hollywood neighborhood was once also called “Bayside Hill” located with the boundaries of Bay Shore Blvd, U.S. 101 freeway and San Mateo County. According to an article written by Harvey Harlowe Hukari, published by San Francisco Magazine in 1964, Little Hollywood was named during the 1930s when many of the Spanish-style influenced homes with white stucco walls and red tiled-roofs, were being constructed, and someone noticed how sunny the weather was, commented that the neighborhood was set out to look like a little Hollywood.” Today, just as it was in 1964, Little Hollywood is a pleasant and culturally diverse neighborhood.
