The L-Taraval OWL got me to the R-Evolution statue at 4:27 am, when I hoped to see it illuminated.  But it wasn't.  The yellow-green tint is reflection.  But it was still worth seeing before the April 18th ceremony commemorating the 1906 earthquake.  

Here are two good articles about this statue, the first by Sam Whiting, and the second by Tony Bravo.
