	A second wave of building followed the 1906 disaster. The earthquake and fire had left the neighborhood untouched, and this too was another boom to development. Many families routed from their homes found temporary housing in the hotels along Stanyan Street. Less fortunate families were sheltered in the tent villages in the park. Many decided to make the Haight Ashbury their permanent home. Their migration west changed the character of the district. The new homes were frequently tract houses or flats built by development associations and sold to the middle classes. With its swelling population, the community began to gradually grow up the slopes of Ashbury and Parnassus Heights and out over the sand dunes towards the ocean.

	By the 1910's, the transition was complete. The new Haight Ashbury was a healthy, comfortable neighborhood. It remained the gateway to the park, but the Stanyan Street commercial area had expanded along Haight and that street became the prime business area for most of western San Francisco. A measure of the vitality of the district at that time was a decision in 1912 to increase the number of street cars along Haight Street from 30 to 41 cars per hour. There were three elementary schools (Grattan, Dudley Stone and Crocker), Polytechnical and Lowell (then at Masonic and Hayes) High Schools, the University of San Francisco, four hospitals (UC Medical Center, St. Mary's, Trinity (at Page and Masonic) and Harkness (at Oak and Baker)). In 1924 a San Francisco columnist wrote "There is a comfortable maturity about the compact little city that San Francisco knows as Haight Ashbury. Not the maturity that is suspicious, but a nice upholstered and fuschia garden sort of grown-up-ness, just weathered enough to be nice, and new enough to be looking ahead to the future."
