Greenwich Steps would be considered imhv being nicknamed as the "daughter steps" are just one block north of Filbert Steps (the "mother steps") where the world famed Grace Merchant Garden is located. However, the garden built by her daughter Valetta in the middle of Greenwich Steps imhv is not only more poetically spaciously landscaped but also has an impressive view of the San Francisco Bay. Rumors in “the Gossip Streets of San Francisco” are [*aka “CNN: The Chinatown News Network” 😂 ] that Lady Grace didn’t get along with her daughter Valetta according to her husband Desmond Heslet so she moved out in 1949 to live alone in a flat on the Filbert side. Some historians revealed an interesting background of Desmond who encountered Pancho Villa when he grew up in Mexico somewhere near “Las Barrancas del Cobre” en Estado de Chihuahua where “El Chepe Express” {*A scenic train route like Amtrak’s “California Zephyr” running from Los Mochis, Sinaloa to Pueblo Magic (Creel, Chihuahua)}. No wonder Desmond and Valetta (“La Guerra”) hit it off wondering it must be her big enticing brown eyes ("high cheekbones, dark and arched eyebrows, dark lips” as described by one historian) a stereotype “Big Foot” DNA from South Dokata brought back his sweet memories of his rebellious and adventurous childhood in La Barrancas de Cobre.[ ¡ Órale güero! 😂] The Heslets were living in a “bohemian” lifestyle of mid-1930s easygoing and rather kind to their tenants who couldn't afford paying high rent, taking care those during the era of AIDS epidemic in 1980s. Both passed away in their 80s or 90s. RIP! ❶ Downhill routes: Muni Bus 39 to Coit Tower [* Good spot to watch Fouth of July Fireworks Show or Blue Angels during the Fleet Week at the Pioneer Park] after do some champing or pixel peeping of the views of Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz etc. then climbing down on Greenwich Steps or alternatively Filbert Steps to reach the Fisherman’s Wharf or Embarcadero. ❷ Uphill routes: Begin at Levi's Plaza on Sansome Street turn on Greenwich Street and climb up about 12 flights on brick steps that are not so challenging as Filbert Steps. The "daughter garden" is in the middle. After reaching Montgomery Street there are another 10 flights to Coit Tower via Telegraph Hill Blvd. ❸Alternative routes: Begin your trip from downtown Montgomery Street to the foot of Telegraph Hill near Green where the infamous “Sydney Duck” gang {who were bunch of convicts supposed to sail to Australia but got too drunk at “Shanghai Kelly” and stayed} used to hangout in late-1800s} choose from either Filbert Steps (limited views of the Bay) or Greenwich Steps . ⚠️Watch out for Coyotes!
