Does anyone actually live in this crazy thing?

Yes, people live here. And it’s an actual building, too, not a fake. The photo was taken by Hakan Dahlstrom in a city that affords the opportunity to take many of these types of photos.

Another photo, taken by Dan Ng in the same city, might give you a clue.

Powell Street, San Francisco

In the first photo, taken in Russian Hill, San Francisco, the tilted trees should have been a strong clue.
