It's hard to imagine cows walking up Third Street or sheep on Innes
Avenue, yet a large portion of the area known today as Bayview
Hunters Point was once extremely rural. Called Butchertown by
locals, the neighborhood was a source of much of San Francisco's
food. Over the years, it evolved into an interesting combination of
residences, businesses, and industries. The area was home to
slaughterhouses, tanneries, tallow works, a saddle shop, the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation, numerous boat yards including the
legendary Allemand Brothers Boat Repair, and the U.S. Naval
operations at Hunters Point Shipyard. Alongside these entities
lived thousands of residents with unique stories and lifestyles.
