Washington Square Park is located on the corner of Union and Columbus Streets. It’s a very popular place for both the locals, and the tourists.
San Francisco’s famous columnist Herb Caen (April 3, 1916 – February 1, 1997) once wrote of Washington Square: “…it’s heart is Washington Square, which isn’t’ on Washington Street, isn’t a square, and doesn’t contain a statue of Washington but of Benjamin Franklin.” The now central statue stands atop a (now closed) water fountain erected by Henry Cogswell, a crusader for temperance.

The view I chose for this shot is looking South toward Coit Tower on Telegraph Hill.
