this sculpture right on the bay along the Embarcadero is amazing, and huge. It would be great to have a playful landmark like this at Poplar Point.
it's the little details that really make a difference...
yep: awesome.
rails: just a regular part of the road.
reminder: the streetcar allignment was moved off of MLK because they said there wouldn't be enough room for all modes to share the roadway. i beg to differ.
1357 Good Hope Road, anyone?
good example of creative cornice preservation.
awesome multi-mode disposal bins. functional and snazzy.
nope, not a cobbler shop anymore, but the fancy furnishings store saved the sign. Industrial chic at its most urban classy.

Those 'details' along the concrete retaining wall are functional, too - they're artistic interpretations on the things they put on those walls to prevent skateboarders from grinding on them.
Regardless of everyone's opinions on skateboarding, that's a far better option than the usual after-the-fact ad-hoc things they bolt on to ledges like that.
Great pics.
garber,
you are cool.
have fun in sanfran. :)
I will be in Orange County this weekend. Will have to keep my eye out on architecture as well although I think San Fran is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cooler lol.
Keep up the good work! :)
When you get back can you send me that info about Historic sites? Thanks!
