The Armory Long Before Kink
— By Kevin Montgomery (@kevinmonty) |

I came across this 1915 postcard of The Armory while rummaging through an antique store yesterday (more on that later). Red brick walls instead of the grey walls we see today. An American flag rather than the leather pride flag. A light rail Muni rolling down Mission Street. And even more surprising, an actual, real live TREE on the sidewalk. 1915 Mission District, you crazy.
