apartment (mine) built on the roof. My living room had weeping views of downtown Oakland, the Bay bridge, San Francisco, the Golden Gate bridge, and the marin headlands.
"weeping" ? ...hmmm, enough to make you cry? :D
Next door to the building was THE PUB. That's all the sign said. It was
a house turned into a bar/coffee shop/discussion salon with individual rooms, well-worn books, a fireplace, board games, a community bulletin board (the cork kind) and two smoking porches. A couple of beers on tap, wine, coffee, cigars, pipe tobacco and all cash. Sales were written down on a steno pad. Outside food was allowed, if not simply ignored.
We had many, many BBS gettogethers there.
Sounds like you didn't have to go far for anything you needed!
