I love how the paint is weeping off this sign. 1576 Market July 2011
Built in 1907 and abandoned to the pigeons and homeless in the 1980′s; 1576 Market Street was demolished in August of 2011. I doubt this double lot hole will sit empty for long. While much of Market Street languishes in functional disuse – it’s proud department stores and theaters of yore having been torn down and segmented into dollar stores and discount clothiers – this lot is eminently buildable with a prime location on the edge of Hayes Valley.
