Carville was active between the 1890s and the mid 1920s when the city burned out most of the houses to make way for new development. [Cable Car Lines in San Francisco http://www.cable-car-guy.com/html/ccsf.html#Carville] The neighborhood is notable for the reuse of abandoned cable cars in housing construction, a few examples of which still remain.
