Geneva Avenue, 1941

I have hundreds of streetcar scrapping shots taken by Robert McFarland, there are many and they are repetitive, but I still try to describe and map them accurately.

I struggled with this one of car 1716 in front of the United Railroads / Market Street Railway company house. Glad to say I figured it out today with help from the SFMTA archive and Library of Congress Sanborn Maps.
