Kearny near California

January 1, 1856

Elevated view northeast on Kearny toward Telegraph Hill, visible in the distance. Mercer & Bernheim Confectioners, McColgan & O'Kane Saddlery at 136 Kearny. The two-story brick building in the center is the Tattersall Stables, at the southeast corner of Kearny and Sacramento streets; built in 1855. Daguerrean Gallery of J. M Ford in distance left, at the southeast corner Clay & Kearny. Signs for Porter & Flenner Empire Livery Stable, 133 Kearny, Catholic Books, Hardware, Painting, Tin Ware, at left. (The address of 136 Kearny is misleading, because the system of addresses was changed to increase addresses by 100 per block, in 1860.)
