flower power

There are a lot of pretty murals in San Francisco, in the most unexpected places. Like here, between two row homes.

 

The irony about the row houses "cheek-by-jowl" in San Francisco, to a city dweller such as myself who lives in a comparatively suburban city such as Seattle, is that in SF they probably have more privacy than we do, with respect to next door neighbors. Whereas most of the row houses in SF only have windows front and back, we have windows on the sides of our houses. However, in the central city, depending on our plats, we can be a mere fifteen or twenty feet from the sides of our next door neighbors, and so we can see in at each other, doing things like washing dishes or raiding the refrigerator. Or walking around in our underwear. Still, I like having the extra light.

 

Note the pineapple downlight.
