Do we wanna have a go at even estimating the actual street. (Prescott Street is fictional). Don't know if we ever hear any cable car dings or references to buses/ BART/MUNI lines. Golden Gate Park and the University didn't seem too far away. And from the pictures in the windows of the attic we could see famous landmarks so it would have to have been quite a high elevation street. Also, I guess they showed this in the pentagram in the Woggy where they lived. Would be cool to go to San Fran and see where fictionally the house and the nexus stood. NB: The actually house is in L.A.  |

The house, at 1329 Prescott Street, is apparently located at the corner of Turk and Laguna.  |

That would've then made the area on the first map where the Halliwell's lived in real life be if all the other information is correct the Van Ness Civic Center area next to Western Addition and Tenderloin obviously which on Google Maps is near Union Square, The Painted Ladies Victorian houses, not far from Chinatown where Piper once went to get potion supplies, Near Haight Ashbury where Ms. Hellfire's apartment was, the Golden Gate Park, a little away from North Beach where Piper and Prue once lived and Fisherman's Wharf naturally.

View AttachmentThanks Emmett for sharing that. I guess they hoped nobody would notice. 😉 Exactly right. They didn't expect anybody to pay attention. Even if someone recorded it on VHS back in 1999, you couldn't pause and notice it as well you can today with the show now in HD. That would've then made the area on the first map where the Halliwell's lived in real life be if all the other information is correct the Van Ness Civic Center area next to Western Addition and Tenderloin obviously which on Google Maps is near Union Square, The Painted Ladies Victorian houses, not far from Chinatown where Piper once went to get potion supplies, Near Haight Ashbury where Ms. Hellfire's apartment was, the Golden Gate Park, a little away from North Beach where Piper and Prue once lived and Fisherman's Wharf naturally. Good rundown about where they might be located and what's close by. |

That's some good estimate for where it could be. It must not have been far from town, since Piper was able to run home from Jeremy or Abbey getting to the manor ahead of Prue, because she was still on the other side of town. |

Wow, they live close to the Tenderloin ?
Do you think there are probably a lot of pentanol addicts around and homeless people too?
I first visited San Fran in 2010 @ 22 years old and then at 2016 and 2019 at 31. So much had changed about the city in between those times and I can imagine it has got so much worse?
Seems like the vanquishing of the nexus definitely had an impact on society and in and around the streets of San Francisco!

It's interesting to get an idea. If any of us here have time be fun to google maps areas to pin point. Be fun imagine where P3, The Bay Mirror, Bucklands and Paige's loft could've been located at. |

In the Fillmore district perhaps? |

I'd assume each of the sisters workplaces would be easily reached by car so perhaps not to far to drive from Prescott Street which looking on Google Maps I got. The Bay Mirror - Gough Street up the road and down from Halliwell Manor where in real life the Bay Area Reporter newspaper is located.  Bucklands I put in the Soma area near Union Square where the museum of modern art today stands.  That could also have been nearby the museum Prue first worked in the pilot then and so not too far out for her subsequently. I've placed Paige's loft in this area.  Because it's known for having churches there so the one she where was left in could've been here with her apartment around 15-20 minutes walk away possibly. |

The area of North Beach near Fisherman's Wharf would obviously be where the apartment Prue and Piper lived in before moving back into Halliwell Manor and could also be where P3 or Halliwell's restaurant is situated being an entertainment hub area for people in San Francisco as well then.  Victor's condo I've placed aroound Pacific Heights because he owns his own business so he could afford that area and it's near the Painted Ladies row of houses, Union Square, and The Cable Car Museum etc.  Leo's area growing up as a child in Burlingame. |

And just for fun South Bay Social Services where Paige worked I put I South San Francisco near the airport as I couldn't think where exactly that would go.  |
