Night and Day

Castle Street in North Beach:

A long gone pagoda telephone booth at Old St. Mary’s in Chinatown, and where the phone booth once was:

Fred Lyon’s picture of “Mr. San Francisco” Herb Caen on a cable car at Powell and Market Streets:

Day and night: The old Palace of Fine Arts in the 1950’s and today: It’s a pretty thing to see at night.

Three views of Pacific Street on the old Barbary Coast: Fred Lyon’s image at night in the heyday of the International Settlement, the San Francisco History Center’s picture of when the area began to get run down toward the end of the 1950’s, and where Spider Kelly’s and the Barbary Coast were today.
