It helps to have one thing fixed and the rest negotiable. Begin with the art you want to see, then decide whether the day calls for a market browse or a simple sandwich stop.

These places offer different ways to shape a Downtown outing. They are not adjacent, and the route between Bunker Hill, Broadway and North Alameda deserves a little planning. Pick a meal rather than trying to fit in every stop. Use the linked records for opening times, entry arrangements and the details that can change.
