17th near Castro Oct 14, 1914

View northwest across 17th Street to the north side the street between Castro and Collingwood Only the first two houses at left (Onion turret McCormick House 4040-42 17th, San Francisco Landmark No. 208, built 1902, architects Kidd and Anderson, and small Victorian at 4038 17th), still remain. The others were demolished or moved, probably in connection with the building of the Twin Peaks tunnel in 1917 and the extension of Market Street in the early 1920s. Building on right at 4026-4028 17th St. is shown in in a later location in wnp25.10518, wnp25.10533, and wnp25.10399. [dpwbook9 dpw2030]
