This is one of my favorite pieces of San Francisco architectural art at 6th and Howard diagonally from IC San Francisco.

The neighborhood requires caution. My first visit to the IC San Francisco in March 2008 occurred the morning after a man was beaten to death by the Examiner newspaper building on Mission and 6th while returning home around 12:30am from a late night market with a carton of milk. A security guard at the Examiner called 911, but response was too late.

The Examiner building is what you pass if walking 6th street back to the IC San Francisco.

I try to approach the IC San Francisco from 4th and Howard.
