A small Spanish colonial-style house, probably from the later 1920s, used to be on a triangular patch of land in the middle of where Sunset curves down to Crescent Heights. In the early '30s, it was a fortune-teller/astrologer's home and office. By the '40s, the gay-friendly "Casanova Club" had moved into it. Somewhere in the '50s, it became a Beatnik coffeehouse named "Pandora", which evolved into a live music venue called "Pandora's Box." What then happened to that little house in 1966 made history.
