    • South of Market street, on the corner of 6th and Howard, there is this strange building which has been decorated with furniture hanging out from the windows.

    Here is the story behind this building:

    "On March 9, 1997, hundreds of people came together to celebrate the opening of Brian Goggin's Defenestration installation. Over 30 pieces of furniture and home appliances are welded and rigged to the two sides of a currently-empty 3-story building at 6th and Howard Street in San Francisco. "

    If you want to know more about this building and its artist, look up the website:

    • There are lots of small grocery stores all over San Francisco. I find them not only convenient but charming as well.

    They give San Francisco an old European flavor which makes the city very appealing to me.
