Many years ago, the Noe Valley Voice ran a piece on how the numbered streets in Noe used to have names, replaced with numbers in the 1800s if I recall correctly.
For example, Navy Street was renamed 26th Street, which makes the fuss over Army's street renaming sound rather silly to me. Expect it to come up again now that Cesar Chavez has been disgraced in the public eye.
Very cool, and loved the linked stories of John's Way and the 1909 renaming (what happened to 31st St). Surprised you left out Washington St/Washington Square as well as 3rd Street many intersections with numbered streets. I can understand you not including the numbered streets in Daly City, since that's outside SF, but they apparently have no relationship with SF's 1st through 30th streets.
