Painted Ladies (Postcard Row) and TV fame

The row of Victorian houses across Alamo Square, commonly called the Painted Ladies or Postcard Row, is a well-known San Francisco architectural landmark noted for its colorful facades. The view of these houses with the city skyline behind them was used in the opening credits of the television series Full House, making the site a piece of pop-culture lore tied to a real location. The houses and the park opposite them are frequent subjects of photography and preservation interest.
