The region is perhaps most well-known for its queer communities, tracing the first notable transgender uprising in the country to the Tenderloin's Gene Compton's cafeteria at 101 Taylor Street. The city's first Pride parade marched to Aquatic Park along Polk Street in June 1970, with San Francisco's Grubstake Diner still just a block away keeping folks full of Portuguese fare and meaty burgers while providing a safe space through the late-night.
