  • The empty lot was the former site of a church. The final occupant was a Baptist congregation. An arsonist burned the building down in 1993. More info here: http://www.baptistchurchsf.org/ourhistory.html
  • The vacant lot was Ebenezer lutheran Church until 1953 (the Lutherans moved to Market/ Portola and are still there as "her church") 1953-1993 it was First Southern Baptist Church (founded 1943 to minister to Southerners moving to the bay area for war work), renamed Dolores Street Baptist Church in 1974. If I recall correctly, the lower floor was in use as a shelter when it burned. The baptists moved to Noe Valley. http://www.baptistchurchsf.org/ourhistory.html
