I'm researching the history of our 1927 house on Baden Street and am also interested in the history of the Glen Park/Sunnyside neighborhoods. Can anyone provide references and/or information on the Crocker Land Company (who I believe developed Baden Street) and Glen Park? Thanks in advance.

The best starting place is the Glen Park Branch library on Chenery.

The Streets of San Francisco by Louis K Lowenstein also has information on Baden and its alphabetical sisters.

Good luck in your research.

Adah Bakalinsky in her book, "Stairways Walks in SF" writes about this on page 127
