Description
Reds Java House and The Bay Bridge in San Francisco Embarcadero Black and White and Red Panoramic
Opened during the Depression, Franco's Lunch, as it was first known, was one of the dozens of small joints that pumped food, booze and coffee into the longshoremen, sailors and other laborers who made San Francisco's teeming port hum. As The Chronicle's Carl Nolte noted a couple of years ago, the breakfast special was a cheeseburger and a beer. That's still a lunch special, but much has changed on all sides of the weathered building. The booming ship traffic is long gone, as ancient as Admission Day celebrations for most Californians. The food shacks fell away like leaves, but a few managed to stay barnacled to the waterfront. It took tenacity, and people like redheaded brothers Mike and Tom McGarvey, tempered by the Depression, World War II and life at sea. The pair bought Franco's and renamed it Red's Java House.

This type of artwork would look terrific on a large canvas, and a print on any other media would look just as stunning!
