Excerpt from San Francisco Street Directory and Guide: Containing the Names and Locations of All Streets, Avenues, Courts, Alleys and Squares in the City and County of San Francisco, and Other Items of Information Useful to Residents and Strangers According to the method adopted in this city for numbering buildings, Market Street is the starting point for numbers on all streets running from it in a northerly, southerly, or westerly direction, and the water front for all streets running therefrom in a westerly or south-westerly direction. The numbers on all streets not commencing at Market Street or the water front run in conformity with the numbers of the main streets running parallel with them, except in the case of a few streets which are numbered in an irregular manner. On all streets the even numbers are on the right-hand side, and the odd numbers on the left, starting from the point of beginning. One hundred numbers, or as many thereof as are necessary, are allotted to each block bounded by main streets; for instance, Montgomery Street commences at Market, and the main streets crossing as you proceed north are Sutter, Bush, Pine, etc.; therefore any numbers between 1 and 100 will be found on the right or left hand side of the street between Market and Sutter, between 100 and 200 from Sutter to Bush, between 200 and 300 from Bush to Pine.
