San Francisco Mike: The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge

http://myredtieblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/san-francisco-oakland-bay-bridge.html

The San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. The exact location of the bridge was dictated by a bedrock ridge that lies 200 feet below the surface of the bay on the line where the Bay Bridge currently sets. On either side of this ridge, the water is quite a bit deeper. The Bay Bridge noteworthy facts include the following? 2 The total coast was $77 million dollars. I'm living in San Francisco and blogging about its history, architecture, and entertainment. Cheers! The Ghoulish Statues of 580 California Street.

SF History: Crocker's Crime. The fence is located behind the center building. Charles Crocker was one of the "Associates," also called the "Big Four." He shared this title with Collis P. Huntington, Mark Hopkins, and Leland Stanford. All in someway played a role in the creation of the Central Pacific Railroad, and all of them amassed huge fortunes and built mansions to reflect this on Nob Hill. How did the public feel about this aggressive display of wealth and power? Labels: San Francisco History. As Sa...

San Francisco Mike: The Ghoulish Statues of 580 California Street

http://myredtieblog.blogspot.com/2011/08/ghoulish-statues-of-580-california.html

The Ghoulish Statues of 580 California Street. The next time you are in the neighborhood of California and Kearny, look up. You will see three ghoulish looking, grim reaper like statues appearing to stare out at this mythical city by the sea. Were they put there like gargoyles to scare away evil spirits? Are they a sign of human, and city mortality? Labels: San Francisco Architecture. I'm living in San Francisco and blogging about its history, architecture, and entertainment. Cheers! Mad Dog in the Fog.

There was a gaggle of us with many particular food requirements including gluten free, healthy, hearty, suitable for a 2 year old, San Francisco-esque and close by.

An aspiring poet wrote these short verses on pieces of tape and placed them on the sidewalk near Valencia Street. This is definitely someone who wants to be heard. Essay: Who Remembers Us? Those who were supposedly the biggest saints are also the ones who are remembered. It is interesting to note that sometimes a figure can go from being the biggest scoundrel to the most pious of saints based solely on how they lived their life after they made their fortune or how they wrote their will. During this time,...
