Like many preindustrial cities, a lot of the early residents of San Francisco rode horses, so there were stables for the horses, usually just a simple, one floor building.As horses gave way to cars, a lot of the old stables were converted to garages, or like this one, the upper floors which was a two story house with verandas all around, very unusual for San Francisco, the veranda came off over time and the house, jacked up, the nearby stable brought underneath the house, making it now three floors.As seen 16 November 2022.
