Balboa Terrace
Developers: Lang Realty Company and Hueter Homes
Constructed: 1920 - 1927
Location: Junipero Serra Boulevard on the west, Monterey Boulevard on the north, San Aleso Avenue on the east, and Ocean Avenue on the south. Here scattered and inharmonious building has been eliminated in favor of a carefully restricted construction program whereby homes are built in groups, block by block, progressively as conditions permit.
The usual way San Franciscans become aware of the residential park of Balboa Terrace is by seeing its name on the old-fashioned streetcar stop shelter on the east side of Junipero Serra Boulevard between Sloat Boulevard and Ocean Avenue. Drivers who take a quick peek beyond are given the pleasure of a wide pedestrian pathway framed by a semicircle entrance with swooping stone benches and ornamental light standards. The landscaping of the gateway, designed by civil engineers Punnett & Parez in 1920, oozes grandeur and pomp.

Heartwood, a multiple graded stakes-placed multiple stakes winner by leading sire Tapit, will initiate his stallion career at Rancho San Miguel in California at the conclusion of his racing career in early 2021. The $486,891-earner will stand for a fee of $2,500, live foal guarantee.

Byrd Memorial Stakes at Mountaineer in 2018 and the
