Geneva Towers: The Bang

Visitacion Valley

Sorry, folks, but there's still segregation in this country. I can say this after I wandered into Visitation Valley, a neighborhood in the south-east of San Francisco. Read my account of this trip under "Warnings and Dangers."

["The infamous" Geneva Towers, at 333 Schwerin, dominated the landscape of the Valley until torn down in 1998]

Pros:"Cosmopolitan spirit, romantic places, famous views"
Cons:"Dodgy areas, dirt, beggars, scarce parking and lack of public restrooms."
In A Nutshell:"Go just south of Market on a bright weekday morning and you'll see what I call a gleeful city. SF is always full of surprises, some not as pleasant as this one."
