: : Any idea what year the famous Crocker spite fence was actually removed?

: : I know that it outlived both Charles Crocker and Nicholas Yung, the "spitee" until at least 1902 (Chron. article on SFGenealogy.com), but can't find out when it actually came down.

: : Could it have been burned in the 1906 fire?
