Then and Now

‘Then and Now’: Sixth Avenue and Judah Street

Above: Sixth Avenue looking north toward Golden Gate Park. A 36-inch water main from Laguna Honda is being installed in the spring of 1926. The temporary bridges allowed vehicles to access garages on the west side of the street. Photo courtesy of a private collector/Western Neighborhoods Project/OpenSFHistory.

Below: Sixth Avenue is now a tree-lined street, 99 years since the “then” photo was taken. Car styles have changed considerably since the roaring ’20s in the early start of 1900s. Photo by Arden Spivack-Teather.
