Kearny Street (/ˈkərni/[1]) in San Francisco, California runs north from Market Street to The Embarcadero. Toward its south end, it separates the Financial District from the Union Square and Chinatown districts.[2] Further north, it passes over Telegraph Hill, interrupted by several gaps near Coit Tower due to the steep terrain.
