Barbary Lane?

Any Tales of the City fans?  Have you visited the street that inspired Barbary Lane?  Is it worth the walk?  Annoying to the people who live there?

Huge fan.  I had the pleasure of meeting Armistead Maupin at an event a couple of years ago.

 

Barbary Lane is inspired by the Macondray Steps at Taylor.  There's not a real Barbary Lane.  This has info about sites that are part of the book and mini-series.  http://www.toursofthetales.com/home.html

 

Beach Blanket Babylon is still running and updated.  It's fun and definitely worth seeing.  https://www.beachblanketbabylon.com/  We're on the April 8, 2019 Celebrity Eclipse Pacific Coastal cruise and plan to go on the overnight in SF.
