Where the San Francisco sun sets

BEYOND CHINATOWN



Returning from Baker Beach, you can
transfer to the N-Judah streetcar
at Sunset and Judah.
From here, you can see the nearby ocean
if the fog ever clears.

By the standards of
Calle de la Fundacion
in the village of Yerba Buena,
( now called Grant)--


these one-family houses,
seem almost rural,
even without front yards.
And about as far from the Bay
as you can ride.


Granny must commute
by streetcar daily,
back to Old Chinatown,
to get fresh bok choy,
and live quail.



-- TenderLoiner,
SF,
May 2007.
