That's the Tenderloin district, which is the densest neighborhood in SF, and one of the poorest. It's full of old apartment buildings and SROs, many of which have retail on the bottom. There aren't many parking garages or lots, and street parking is mostly metered. I don't think many people buy/rent spots there...and if they do it would probably be relatively cheap (it's a busy, high crime neighborhood, not the ideal parking situation). The tenderloin is well served by public transit because of it's location in the middle of downtown, and most residents don't own cars.
