Columbus & Union

View north across intersection to Muni PCC #1006 with wings livery, marked for X-11th St. Only service, on rail fan excursion. Washington Square in background, Sts. Peter & Paul Church at right. (X-Line really wasn't a revenue line; Muni used that designation for fan trips, charters, test runs, etc., which inevitably reached wherever they were going by way of 11th Street and the H line from and to the Mariposa Barn.)

Van Ness & Austin

View east across Van Ness Avenue between Pine and Austin for the Knights Templar Parade. Crowd assembled. The Van Ness Avenue Methodist Episcopal Chapel, 1412 Van Ness, at right. The Van Ness Ave. M. E. Chapel was reported by the Call in February 1892 to be "recently built" as a "temporary" structure until a more substantial edifice could be built. It was listed as the Van Ness Ave. M. E. Church in the 1892-1894 city directories. (PF)
