Yesterday, we brought you a set of historical photos from the eastern half of the Lower Haight.
Today we're heading west of Fillmore with an even larger set, including amazing pre-quake shots of a Duboce Park without dogs, Divisadero without gas stations, and perhaps most striking/eerie, street after street without a single tree.
Enjoy.
