During most of the years 73-74 when I was in the Navy, I worked 6PM to Midnight shift (the AIMD shop had 4 6-hour shifts, plus rotating weekend duty days). I was living in North Park at the time, as were several of my shopmates. Many nights we would meet at a house on Meade Ave a couple of blocks from my apartment to play spades and drink beer - usually Olympia from the minimart next door. An interesting house - the upstairs bedrooms were accessible by a backside exterior stairway or via a vertical ladder inside a closet.
