Boyfriend named cliff. They paint it yellow. When he got a new boyfriend named dennis, they painted it red to get rid of cliff. But it was a beautiful little car. He still remembers it. It disappeared, we think, sometimes in the 1970s. But this is what keeps my hopes up. This actually isnt in carville. This is in the Richmond District on ninth avenue. People say, are there any car houses left . Are they all gone . Have they disappeared . This is an example of how one can surprise you. This is on ninth avenue in the parking lot behind the old coliseum theater. Before that park being lot was there the city was looking for houses, spaces, near merchant corridors to create these little parking lots. They bought this house from a mrs. Suggs because they wanted to tear it down and put the parking lot in.

Somebody will say, i have a cable car house, nobody asked me. Come take a look at it. Because right now were down to one or two maybe that are still around when were talking about there used to be hundreds. Essentially into a generation of tearing them down. No more construction.
