| Although San Francisco`s Chinatowns alleys were known for brothels back in the 1870`s and 1880`s, Beckett Alley was known as `The lowest of the low`, where a young woman, or girl, could be had for as little as twenty five cents. Thus the nickname `Twenty five cents alley`.
Today it is a well maintained street of apartments and family associations |
