ReplyDeleteWE (bf and I) live here! We call it The Tiffany Triangle. I used to live in the Duboce Triangle, so this name came naturally to me. I think it's perfect because this is the only place in town with a street called Tiffany, and there is a distinct triangle (formed by Mission, Dolores, and Cesar Chavez) surrounding it.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I haven't seen anyone mention this "TRANSMISSION" neighborhood that is labeled and shown in sky-blue color on the map image above!
