    James Lick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I noticed that hwy 101 in SF was called the James Lick Freeway and wanted to know who he was. Turns out he was a philanthropic land baron, who also helped build the "Lick Old Ladies" home.

    Quoted: # In 1884, the Lick Old Ladies Home in San Francisco was established with a grant from the Lick estate.
