  1. i like valley street, but not this far up the hill..its not walkable, cold and windy, and you have to drive everywhere.
    I think a place sold on Valley (between Church and Dolores) for $3mm sometime last year? That area is more desirable in my opinion.

  2. Median per sq foot much more accurate however.
    was a much touted figure here a few years ago, so must be available somewhere.
    anyone? Ed?

  3. Thank you for the title to this thread. Until reading it, I never would have guessed at an individual property would not have the same result as the median figure. Who knew? I’m going to write a letter to try to get this insight nominated for a Nobel Prize in Economics.
