North of Lake in San Francisco - Where's the lake?

A reader asks:

I have been hearing about "North of Lake" for some time, but wonder... where's the lake? I finally figured out that they meant north of Lake Street. But how did the street get its name?

Our reply:

I don't know where Lake street got its name but there is a lake north of Lake Street and a park. The park is Mt. Lake Park and it is a very popular park that has a lake with swans and ducks, a children's playground, tennis courts and a walking path. They have several seating areas with benches and grassy areas for picnics or games. It is a dog friendly park and goes from 7th Avenue to Funston. Properties North of Lake -- even on the north side of Lake street-- are typically more valuable than South of Lake.

I have a new property listing coming on next week that is on 7th Avenue and has direct access from their garden right on to Mt. Lake Park; it is a very unique setting. This area is especially popular with families.
