Unfinished History

At the intersection of 19th and Rhode Island, 19th Street becomes a beautiful garden walkway... just past the telephone pole. After you make it down the path you emerge at Carolina where there were once public housing projects and today is a public high school. Between those two histories, there was once an unofficial "Potrero Hill Commons" on the slope above the old railroad tunnel.
