Then and Now

‘Then and Now’: Taraval Street and 33rd Avenue

Above: This southwest view at 33rd Avenue and Taraval Street shows Ring’s Market in 1951. Photo courtesy of a private collector/Western Neighborhoods Project/OpenSFHistory.

Below: The building is now home to Cal Insurance (next door to the Four Deuces bar). The distinctive tower at the building’s northeast corner is long gone. It looks similar to something that might be designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Photo taken in December, 2022, by Michael Durand.
