2. Peter Macchiarini Steps and Marker
The marker is not quite visible here, embedded in the sidewalk, just to the left of the bottom of the steps on the left side of the street. The SF Parks Alliance notes on their page for this feature that the steps can be briefly seen in the movie Bullitt, "in the scene where Lt. Frank Bullitt (Steve McQueen) walks across Broadway to Enrico's to visit an informant."

2. Peter Macchiarini (Wikipedia). "Peter Macchiarini (August 27, 1909 – July 3, 2001) was an Italian-American California-based American Modernist jeweler and sculptor who was a pioneer in the field of avant-garde jewelry. He maintained an art studio and shop on Grant Avenue in San Francisco, California, for more than 50 years and was instrumental in organizing the first San Francisco outdoor art festival in 1938 as well as founding the Upper Grant Avenue Street Fair in 1953, an event that spawned similar artist-run festivals in the San Francisco Bay Area."
