I will be in San Francisco, August 27th to August 30th. Will be staying in the Union Square area------Any former neighbors or friends care to see me?

I am going to visit San Francisco on my birthday August 27th- I will stay till August 30th. I am going (or attempt to) walk the length of the Golden Gate Bridge, as I did in 1971. It will be a thrill to visit my old workplace, and also where I used to live. I only know one person there (an irish artist) he refuses any contact with me, unfortunately, my husband and I would love to take him and his family out to dinner, and since we will only be there a few days, we want to make the most of our visit.

I WISH I COULD VISIT, SAN FRANCISCO, AGAIN, EVEN FOR A FEW DAYS. THE LAST TIME I WAS THERE, WAS 1983. I MISS SAN FRANCISCO, TERRIBLY, AND I AM HEARTSICK, BECAUSE AT THE PRESENT TIME, CIRCUMSTANCES, PREVENT ME FROM GOING. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER LANA MOFFO (BIG RED) FROM THE FEDERAL BLDG. ON GOLDEN GATE AVE. 1970-71, IF SO PLEASE RESPOND TO lanacats@comcast.net

Really, San Francisco is a beautiful city and a nice one to live in. You guys are doing a great job, here, keep it up. I wish I could have an opportunity to visit this historic city of San Francisco.

Beautiful photos, but they make me so sad and nostalgic. I lived in San Francisco, March 70-June 71. Unfortunately Philly is my home, and due to circumstances I doubt I will ever see this beautiful city once more.

How I miss this magnificent city. I lived at 7630 Geary and 1417 Clement from 1970-71. I worked at the Federal Bldg. on Golden Gate Avenue. Unfortunate circumstances made me move back to Philadelphia, june 1971. Now instead of beautiful mountains and the Golden Gate, I am packed in with 24 inches of snow, obnoxious people, and a very unhappy life. San Francisco was like Heaven on Earth!!!

Great shots! I disagree with "san franciscan"; sounds like he prefers the dirt and grime which you get in any city. I'm a native so don't call it "frisco." Gosh!

YOU LEGEND! These Pictures Rock!

can put more pictures about the city center more ghettos and china town and more real picture of the city rather than only a bunch of hollywood-cover fancy pics.

I wanted to have some explanations because i prepare a talk on SF

I absolutely love these photos. Great photos of a great city. I love your work with lighting. Very clever captions, too.
