En 1978, la photographe Janet Delaney n’était qu’une étudiante à la San Francisco Art Institute et déménageait à South of market (SoMa), un quartier modeste de San Francisco. Le week-end, la jeune femme s’amusait à photographier les environs de son nouveau quartier. Voici une sélection de clichés authentiques.
