Weird old North Van Ness landmark gone for good

The Tenderloin Geographic Society reports:

Let us remember with fondness the house that Q*bert built, for it is no more. [link]

If only we’d left the Mission more, maybe we’d have been able to enjoy this thing more. I think I saw one movie in that place, and I think it was some kind of special screening of the Coen Brothers’ now classic The Man Who Wasn’t There, and they handed out promotional plastic combs. I am remembering this with fondness.

    It was ugly and not historically or quintessentially San Francisco. Good riddance.

    Reserve your outrage for what monstrosity is going to replace it.

    It was quintessentially AWESOME.

    But okay, I can see how it was not useful for any sort of business.
