I was walking down one of the charming streets of San Francisco last week, I came across an extraordinary building. It was so astonishing, I took this picture.
As you can see in the above image on the left, it's obviously a building of Victorian vintage, but with a rather unexpected set of roof-top ornaments! I was struck by how curious and out-of-place it seemed with its domes and crennelation.
So I took the picture, got online and looked it up. Ah ha! Once I realized what it was, I remembered another picture I had in my files?an archival photo of another famous location here in the Valley with a rather different kind of dome.
Today's question is another simple one. (It is the beginning of the year after all?next week we'll get a little more difficult.)
What is the connection between these two buildings?
(And it's NOT that they both have domes. There's a much more interesting fact that links these buildings.)
For extra credit, can you find the lat/long of the Ashram?
As usual, let us know how long it took you to find out what the connection is, and what path you followed to find it!
Search on!
