To tourist, bay-windowed Victorian mansions are quaint, peaceful symbols of old San Francisco. But on the secluded hill above Steiner Street, the gingerbread has sparked a bitter battle between the ambitious developers and the residents who do not want their homes restored. As workmen rip though layers of sheetrock, plaster and wallpaper they unearth a cache of stolen antiques and a missing one of a kind Tiffany lamp emblazoned with the profile of a Cheshire Cat.
