Did you know that the original name for San Francisco was Yerba Buena?
That's spanish for "good grass".
The pueblo El Parage de Yerba Buena, or "the place of the good grass," originally got its name from the local vine that grew in profusion around the area. It was located three miles away from the presidio that defended the area.
