Starting out with a Nob Hill sidewalk stairway: 192 steps for the west side of Taylor from Pine up to California, first pic.
Into Russian Hill's Ina Coolbrith Park 154 steps climb from Mason to Taylor, pix 2 thru 10. This is the total number on the south side; it's first a double stairway, then turns into south-only stairs partway up (69th step). On the north side are a couple of older apartment buildings.
At the top (pic 11) you'll see another stairway across the street, still the Vallejo stairs but these ascend to a grassy openspace with a view east: 103 steps for this part (12, 13, 14). Counting these as two separate stairways, but they do continue straight up the hill so could also just be considered as one superlong stairway.
From the minipark sidewalk stairs are on both sides of Vallejo out to Jones. Florence to Jones: 41 steps on the south side.
42 sidewalk steps on Vallejo’s north side from the openspace viewplace to Jones (pic 15) and 20 for each side of the unique double stairway down to Jones: 16, 17.
Short Florence St. off Vallejo (pic 18) dead-ends for vehicles at another stairway (54 steps) that descends to Broadway: 19, 20, 21.
Now for the Broadway Stairmaster: 169 sidewalk steps from Taylor partway up to Jones for the south steps: 22, 23, 24.
… And 165 north sidewalk steps, last two pix.
To be continued … more Russian Hill.
