While we're in the area, these two houses were on the opposite side of Sunset (at 841 and 835), just out-of-shot in the image above. Seen here in 1960, Historic Aerials shows them gone by 1964.

Hmmmm interesting. It's odd that when you search 'Geoff Palmer Victorian House' there are dozens of articles slamming him for 'tearing down the last Victorian on Bunker Hill', but not 1 image of the house in question. Seems fishy to me. Was the house truly a teardown but that didnt fit the anti-Palmer narrative of these articles?
Edit:
I seem to have found it, what do you guys think - was it worth saving?
