These Greenman heads can be viewed near the top of South Hall at the UC Berkeley Campus. They grace the  gutter pipes and surround the building facing in all Directions. The light of day and the corroding rust and paint can make them look very different even though they are all cast in the same mold.

Ceiling of the Board of Supervisors Chamber at City Hall in SF
Although there may be some question as to whether this is indeed a Greenman, his leafy jowls have qualified him for inclusion on this page. He looks down from the ceiling of the Chamber of The Board of Supervisors at San Francisco City Hall. The Chamber is open to the public when the Board is in session and as part of the thrice-daily docent-led tours.
