Thread Name: Folklore: Which Sailortown has Sand Street?
Subject: RE: Folklore: Which Sailortown has Sand Street?
I'll make a case against San Francisco simply because the old Sand Hills were moved many, many years ago (19th c.) to help fill some of the bay's marsh areas. Perhaps it was because of this and perhaps the founding fathers had had their fill of sand, but there is no Sand Street in San Francisco. :-)
