The Brown House 228 Filbert Street San Francisco 2 Royalty-Free Stock Image

Philip Brown, a native of the Isle of Jersey, spent time at sea on his way to San Francisco. While running his own business as a stevedore, a person who loads and unloads ships, he built his own home in 1882, himself, along the Filbert Steps to be near the waterfront and close to his business. The home remained in the family long after he died and is still a private home, so please be respectful. As enjoyed 10 April 2024.
