... I'd like to see this building on the corner of 202 Green Street. I noticed a plaque there on the corner. This is the site where Philo T. Farnsworth had his laboratory back in the 1920's when he was working on his invention, something that we would come to know as television. I guess that might be a modern building, though it looks old to me. (It would still be an interesting area to visit.) There is a hill at the back and I think it comes right down to the building because Philo said that rocks and boulders would occasionally roll down the slope and crash against his lab...
Yes, the hill behind it Telegraph Hill. At the top is Coit Tower, donated by Lillie Hitchcock Coit in honor of firemen. The art deco tower looks like the end of a fire hose.
I've walked around the area, and up and down the hill during lunchtime - there are pathways that lead past homes with no road access. The famous parrots of Telegraph Hill can often be seen. Levi's HQ is nearby
