Lombard Street in San Francisco is famed for its steepness and tight turns. It may not be the most crooked street in the world (Vermont Street holds this title) but it is more picturesque than the rest.
“They built a street up there called Lombard Street that goes straight down, and they’re not satisfied with you killing yourself that way—they put grooves and curves and everything in it, and they put flowers there where they’ve buried the people that have killed themselves. Lombard Street, wonderful street. – Bill Cosby”
