Where this comes from
The street holds more than 120 decisions; this page carries the 120 most notable. Every line is written from one item in the minutes of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, the city council, and links to the page it was printed on at the Internet Archive or in the Clerk's own files. Many of the Board's decisions name no street at all, and only the ones that do can be placed here. How the record was read · The whole city
