Painted Ladies

Seen from Alamo Square park, San Francisco’s famous “Painted Ladies” refers to this row of Victorian houses at 710-720 Steiner Street. It’s also sometimes known as “Postcard Row.” The houses were built between 1892 and 1896 by developer Matthew Kavanaugh, who lived next door to the row houses, in the mansion at 722 Steiner Street.
