Amazing. San Francisco is one of my favorite cities. I have been there at least a dozen times in the last 15 years. These pictures are familiar but completely foreign at the same time.
To see all of the now ultra-expensive gorgeously renovated houses as old slightly run down housing stock is jarring. I love the early hippie shots, the clothing worn legitimately at that time, but now it is so cliché it is more recognizable as a costume than something someone would legitimately wear. San Francisco is so unique and with such a unique history there is perhaps no city it is more enjoyable to look at these kind of pictures of.
