This walking tour celebrates the under-recognized architectural, historical and social gems of  Dubois Street. The street historically presented an alternative to Grand and  Montgomery Street, home to the city’s older merchant families, and gave opportunities to a new generation of entrepreneurs and institutions. On this walk we’ll see how builders and neighbors tried to create the ideal neighborhood overtime, and meet some of the personalities who called the street home. Further along, we’ll stop at a church, statue, hospital, and former college building—indicators of the street’s prestige. We're looking to gather more contemporary histories, so if you have some stories, please share along the walk!

 

The tour is available on Urban Archive and was written by architectural historian Steven Baltsas and led by architect Anoushae Eirabie.
