1 mile in Civic Center

I toiled for whole minutes debating whether I should post one walk through three neighborhoods as one awkward post or three short ones.  In the end, I decided to break it up.  So...the first mile of my Friday walk was down Van Ness.

It's a very exciting one mile.  Here is the State Building.

And City Hall.

The Herbst Theatre.

The Opera House.

And Symphony.  Ooh, ahh!

Editor's Note:  This street is really beautiful and packed with important buildings.  But, it also harbors a slew of unsavory characters so walk this neighborhood with care.
