The new Press Apartment building at 21st & Q St., across the street from the Sacramento Bee newspaper. The light-rail overpass where bats live(d) when I used to linger here in 2016 is behind this building.The Press Club is a block away, at P Street. It just dawned on me that the Press Club gets its name from the newspaper. I've lived here thirty years, and I only just now made that connection. I am not the swiftest knife in the drawer!
The building in which the Sacramento Bee is housed has offices that can be sublet! The decline and fall of a great metropolitan newspaper! Damned Internet!
Pigs fly! (28th & U St.)
Ella K. McClatchy Branch of the Sacramento City Library (Poverty Ridge neighborhood). Is Ella short for Eleanor, of Elly Award fame? I wonder.
Joan Didion childhood home, 22nd & T St., Poverty Ridge neighborhood.
Dad's, on S Street.
Curious Mural, visible from Dad's.
Saint Elizabeth Catholic Church, 12th and S St.
Old Ironsides, and 10th and S St. I came here for a campaign stop when I ran for Governor in 2003
Cool-looking mid-century modern car wash. I think this is Orbit Wash, 9th and T St.
Not from a bike trip. A cool-looking, gold-colored mandala on the wall at Taste of Thai, 1628 Broadway Blvd.
Round Corner, 24th and T St. I like the Glass Block Windows.
Murals in the alleys just south of the light rail line, near 24th St.
American Market, 24th and N St. This store was featured in a montage sequence in Greta Gerwig's "Lady Bird." 
American Market
American MarketThe fellow who put this video together lists the American Market first
(I think he got the train tracks wrong - I think Greta was referring to the old Union Pacific tracks, not the light rail tracks in East Sacramento - but no biggie.)
First Baptist Church of Sacramento, 24th & L St.
The Vineyard Church, 24th and K St.
I like the look.
Various murals.
Prince, on 20th St.
Here's the light rail overpass I mentioned at the start. I need to return here at night and listen for bats.
