Above: This view looking east at California and Cornwall streets toward Sixth Avenue in 1932 shows a paucity of automobiles compared to what we see in the 21st century. Streetcar tracks can be seen at right. Photo courtesy of a private collector/Western Neighborhoods Project/OpenSFHistory.
Below: A curb was added where the two roads conjoin creating much-needed parking spaces. Most of the buildings look similar to how they were 93 years ago. Photo by Michael Durand.
