Blocker, No. 13: Innes Ave. in Hunters Point / India Basin

Question: Innes Ave. is in which area of San Francisco?

A) Hunters Point: San Francisco’s notorious waterfront/hilltop ghetto, adjacent to a naval shipyard-cum-Superfund site.

B) India Basin: Hardscrabble home to industrial businesses galore.

C) India Cove: Cozy-sounding name marketed by area developers.

D) Hunters Point / India Basin Historic District: Once “India Cove” takes root, the little brown “Historic District” signs won’t be far behind.

E) All of the above.

Answer: E, or at least that’s what we think. Few San Francisco streets rival the 800 block of Innes Ave. between Arelious Walker and Griffith for wide-ranging Blocker fodder.
