Great photos! I go to San Francisco like 3 or 4 times a year, often for long weekends.

The photos from the 1950s makes me think of the movie "Vertigo." And the 1960s shots with the 60s cars makes me think of that Zodiac Killer period.

I really like the shots of the run-down, decrepit 1915 Palace of Fine Arts being demolished; you can really see by its construction that it really was meant to be only temporary, but I guess people loved it so much that they demolished it and recreated it in reinforced concrete. I had never before seen pictures of the temporary structure being demolished.
