En route to the Presidio, I came across this jewel of a home on Greenwich, near the Marina. Formerly the North End Police Station built in 1912 and designated a landmark in 1996, the structure now serves as a private residence. The facade reminds me of a stately Italian palazzo; giant lanterns astride the entrance bow to an Art Nouveau influence. I imagine jail cells make for interesting conversation.
