Continue on 17th Street to Shrader Street, and cross Shrader.
1461 Shrader Street - The large tree on the 17th Street side of this corner address is a Brazilian pepper tree from Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. The scientific name is Schinus terebinthifolius. This address was the childhood home of Bernice Brown, mother of former Governor Jerry Brown. I attended a political event in Cole Valley in the late 1990s, where Jerry Brown was in attendance, and he shared with the crowd that he was “conceived” in that building.
