      <image:caption>Pacific Heights: 2640 Steiner St Mrs. Doubtfire (1993): Everyone’s favorite nanny! And the site of a part of the Gospel according to San Francisco. If you have an opportunity to watch the play I highly recommend it. I wish I had been in San Francisco when Robin Williams passed away- apparently hundreds of people (including my mother and siblings) left flowers here to pay their respects.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>North Beach: St. Peter &amp; Paul Church: 666 Filbert St Zodiac (2007), Getting Even With Dad (1994), Sister Act 2 (1993), Dirty Harry (1971) : Did you know that this is also the location of a very famous photo-shoot? That’s right, Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe, each being formerly married, weren’t able to get the blessing of the Catholic Church for their planned nuptials. Reportedly even the Pope denied their request! So you know what they did? They got married at City Hall and had the world’s largest photo shoot on the front steps of St. Peter &amp; Paul- giving the impression that the entire ceremony took place there as well!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Financial District: TransAmerica Pyramid, 600 Montgomery St Venom (2018), Zodiac (2007), Invertigo (1958), : Ironically this used to be the tallest building in San Francisco and has somehow managed to maintain the status of third tallest. You can see the current tallest building, the Salesforce Tower (lower right with the flat top), just behind the TransAmerica Pyramid. Another super cool fun fact about the Transamerica Pyramid is that the park right next door (TransAmerica Redwood Park) is the current roosting site of our Wild Parrot flock. So if you’re in the Financial District when the sun is getting ready to set and you hear some very loud squawking, you’re not going crazy, San Francisco has parrots and you can read more about them here. That really cool green building? That’s the Sentinel Building (rumored to be owned by Francis Ford Coppola), with Cafe Zoetrope on the ground-floor!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Excelsior District: 724 Brazil St Princess Diaries (2001): Remember that random fire pole in the middle of Mia Thermopolis’ “civilian house”? Turns out her house was a real fire station in the neighborhood that I grew up in! Last I checked there was an Airbnb experience that did t-shirt screen-printing at this location. While most of the movie was shot in Pacific Heights and other “fancier” parts of town, we did get one scene in the outer Mission. And my father knew when Julie Andrews and Anne Hathaway were filming in our neighborhood. He knew we wouldn’t finish washing the car if he told us. I’ll never forgive him.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Broadway St at Taylor St Pursuit of Happyness (2006), Princess Diaries (2001), Bullitt (1968): Interestingly enough a popular claim is that the Bay Bridge isn’t as photogenic as the Golden Gate. The view speaks for itself. For your planning purposes, keep in mind that the bridges are on opposite sides of the City. This shot is just another reminder of how insanely beautiful San Francisco is. That’s probably why it was used in the final shot of Pursuit of Happyness.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Nob Hill: 15 Phoenix Terrace Princess Diaries (2001): This is where Mia’s best friend lived. Phoenix Terrace is a tiny cul-de-sac in Nob Hill that has less than ten houses- actually not far from the amazing view at Broadway &amp; Taylor. Fun fact the Phoenix is an unofficial mascot of San Francisco, paying homage to our rebirth after the disastrous earthquake and fires of 1906.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Alamo Square: Steiner St, between Hayes St and Grove St Fuller House (2016-2020), FullHouse (1987-1995): Hate to burst anyone’s bubble but it was only the opening sequence that was filmed here at the Painted Ladies, otherwise known as Postcard Row. If you’re interested in checking out the inside of one of the iconic homes, contact George for a tour of the blue one. The other home (white Victorian) from the television show is located in Pacific Heights at 1709 Broderick St.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Marina District: Palace of Fine Arts, 3601 Lyon St Always Be My Maybe (2019), Star Wars Three: Revenge of the Sith (2005), The Rock (1996), Vertigo (1958): Episodes of Wheel of Fortune and Game of Thrones were also filmed here at the Palace. This has to be my favorite building in the City. It is no surprise that so many shows and movies have been shot here! This was the original dispatch location for the limousines of the United Nations, founded right here in San Francisco, 1945. The beauty of the Palace of Fine Arts is truly unrivaled.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Chinatown: 20 Ross Alley The Pursuit of Happyness (2006): This is where the preschool was! And the Fortune Cookie Factory is literally just a few storefronts down, towards Jackson St. It is rare that so many different scenes in a movie are shot in the City proper. But just like Mrs. Doubtfire, The Pursuit of Happyness was filmed all over San Francisco- Glen Park Bart Station, Duboce Park, the Mission District and Chinatown!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>1. Harvey Milk After Harvey Milk’s assassination, his friends split his remains into three parts. They were worried someone would try to destroy them. One set was scattered at sea. Another is kept at The San Francisco Columbarium and Funeral Home. This is the only non-denominational final resting place in the City that still has space available. Harvey’s crypt is pictured above.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Harvey’s final set of ashes is underneath the plaque in front of his former camera shop, 575 Castro St (pictured above). This location also served as his primary residence and campaign headquarters. In fact many parts of the film Milk (2008) were filmed at the original Castro neighborhood locations.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>2. James Sullivan James Sullivan was a prizefighter and hired enforcer who was found dead in his jail cell. His death is a matter of much speculation. He’s buried in the Mission Dolores cemetery, one of only a handful of cemeteries that still remain in the City limits. You can visit during normal business hours (I believe one of the cemeteries in the Presidio might be open to the public as well but don’t quote me on it). The Mission is one of the oldest buildings in the United States and the grave markers date from 1830 to around 1898! Learn more information about visiting (and it is well worth it) here.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>3. Thomas Starr King Thomas Starr King was an orator, minister, and Freemason. He became very influential in California politics during the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln credited him with helping keep California as part of the Union. Thomas Starr King has been referred to as “The Orator Who Saved the Nation.” You’ll find his sarcophagus on Cathedral Hill (pictured above) 1143 Franklin St.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Media - “Over Christmas I had to turn down seven dogs,” said Eric Curry, 20, a pre-veterinary college student in Los Angeles…”I used to have two part-time jobs, but it made no sense working those jobs when I could do this out of my home while I study.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Eric - Hi, I’m Eric!</image:title>
      <image:caption>My entire life I’ve had three obsessions: animals, entrepreneurship, and San Francisco.  I grew up with almost every pet you’ve seen at a pet store: chinchillas, rabbits, cockatiels, and many cats and dogs, just to name a few. In May 2013, I started Eric Curry’s Pets (ECP), a private pet care company. To view the walking tours I am currently offering at The Native Experience, head on over here. Learn more about my books here: A Real San Francisco Story. With Pets. (2020) Emilio’s First Pride (2025) I’m so happy we’ve crossed paths. Let’s keep in touch! eric@ericcurryco.com Welcome!</image:caption>
