San Francisco's Mission District has a lot of murals. My pick for the most original blend of building with art are the ones on the undistinguished boxy apartment block that is Bethany Center Senior Housing. I don't know anything about this place except what is on the website -- but I love it that they say they want to be more than "a reliable landlord." In San Francisco, a reliable landlord is a marvelous thing!
It would be pretty cool to live behind a window with this figure on its outside.
Or this very San Franciscan snapshot of another time.
This fellow could easily be a current resident.
They are having almost too good a time!
At ground level, artist Dan Fontes painted a ticket window in an exit alcove along with his credits. He called this enormous project "¡Salud!"
Nice fototale.
