San Franciscans: does that name ring a bell? Maybe it's in Marin County or the East Bay hills? Nope.
Redwood Park is the name of a private urban oasis at the base of Transamerica Pyramid adjacent to the city's financial district. Its builders even trucked in some actual redwoods from the Santa Cruz mountains.

But mostly they went in for antic delights.
There are bronze jumping frogs ...
bronze jumping children ...
and a memorial plaque for Bummer and Lazarus, dogs who romped about the area in the city's early days.
All encountered while
Walking San Francisco.

I remember going to that little pocket park one day when we lived in SF. I loved the children piece.
