Random SF Pics

On the left, the San Francisco Penninsula's Caltrain railroad (HSR will run on this ROW). Splitting off to the right with the locomotive is San Francisco's freight line to the port. That's the Bay Bridge in the distance, with the serpentine 280 Freeway winding up and over the industrial zone.

I wonder if we'll ever see taller buildings go up immediately around GG park, like Central Park....The park and ocean views would be spectacular.

Cool finds, fflint. Something about the angles and the way that branch line descends make that railroad shot look unreal.

If the link still doesn't work, click on the "source"--it's worth it.

I know only part of your building is visible, but can you see yourself working away in one of those lit windows?
