#filbert steps

The most well known of San Francisco's numerous pedestrian streets is that section of Filbert Street between Montgomery and Battery streets on the steep eastern slope of Telegraph Hill - the Filbert Steps. This pastoral enclave, which includes the cross streets Darrell Place and Napier Lane and the nearby Greenwich Steps, is dotted with cottages that are testament to the bittersweet challenge of cottage living.

Two paintings I did of the same plant at the gardens around the Filbert Steps.

The Filbert Steps on Telegraph Hill in San Francisco is filled with cottages accessible by stairs and boardwalks. This adorable cottage is still part of that neighborhood today. The building is still red and still has the scalloped fascia.

Perfectly imperfect style brought to you by things found in your basement and things found on the side of the road.
