Two hundred twenty-four Grant Avenue is marked by its association with a local institution that held this address for over a century. Founded in eighteen seventy-one, Podesta Baldocchi was a florist that became a destination for city residents, especially during the holidays when their window displays were a regular attraction. The shop gained recognition for its interior, which featured Italian marble artwork and tile floors salvaged from the nineteen fifteen Panama-Pacific International Exposition.
