18th near Market

View west on 18th (then Falcon) between Danvers and Mono (then Moss). 4161-63 Market, at the time 61-63 Falcon, still stands today. This block began as Falcon Street, which was an extension (and the former name) of 18th. The early 1920's extension of Market Street used Falcon as the right of way, and these homes were on Market. The 1950's widening project created a retaining wall across the street and these homes were now on 18th Street, where their addresses are today. Twin Peaks in the background [dpwbook19 dpw4319]

View north to corner of 18th Street and Danvers prior to extension of Market Street. The retaining wall below Market Street now cuts through this view, and the building on the corner was cut back to a triangular shape. The west side of the building now only extends about as far as the first set of small windows, and a stairway up to Market blocks what was the business entrance on the corner.
