WHAT KIND OF SHOWERS COME OUT OF A GOLDEN HYDRANT? (A Quick 'Where Is This? Post)
Okay, a quick, sidewalk-themed, two-part-er. First, an easy one (you should know this one); it's in San Francisco (and no, it's not a prop for the big Academy of Friends party):
And the real quiz; it's on a pavement in San Francisco (and they're not some fish that fell out of a bin in Chinatown and onto the sidewalk):
Just like last time, the first person to come up with the right answer gets a prize (the first person to guess the first one'll get something).
And the winner of the last "Where?" is...my dear friend Kali! Sorta. She guessed that she'd seen this view from somewhere around 16th & Valencia in San Francisco (because it was "close, but no cigar, she gets a set of postcards instead of notecards :-P ):
In reality, it's on Capp just south of 18th; it was interesting to see how the three small cottages had been placed on one standard lot with a small alley entrance and a small garden in back, and the view to the church just closed the deal. In the great way that histories and peoples and communities overlap in an older urban neighborhood, the 19th century religious structure is now the Korean United Presbyterian Church; the corner of Capp and 18th houses Balompie Cafe, a great Salvadorean eatery; and out of view to the left of the church is the classic early-60's era Whiz Burger Drive-In. Anyone know if these may be "earthquake cottages?"
