Downtown SF

Daughter is signed up for ice skating lessons downtown, so I've been spending Saturday mornings in downtown SF, after not having been in some time.

Can confirm the media reports that's it's completely trashed. Notice the candy wrapper wantonly discarded on the lawn:

Here's a building with some charming carved stone walruses in the... architrave? Facade? Whatever...




Glad to see the Tadich Grill is still offering Corned Beef Hash as an entree... and "Long Branch Potatoes" still available with your steak....






Some pics of the former Hills Brothers Coffee headquarters, now called Hills Plaza I think:










More facade, with depictions of the "California story" I think:


Gold miner:



Crab guy:



Chinese guy:




No idea:
