  • Release : 1998
  • ISBN : 9781890771126
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book The Ferry Building written by Nancy Olmsted and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built in 1898, San Francisco's Ferry Building has been witness to a century of turbulent and compelling history. From its prominent position at the foot of Market Street, it has seen a hundred years of victory parades and funeral processions, protest marches and celebrations, earthquakes and their aftermath, as well as the daily comings and goings of millions of citizens. From an era of horsecars, working-class hotels, and nickel steam beer to the present age of computers and highrises, the Ferry Building has served as a terminus for passengers and as a constant, elegant, and hardworking presence in the life of San Francisco. This book is a grand visual tribute to the Ferry Building's first hundred years. Over 200 spectacular photos and a deeply-researched and lively text bring to life the sights, sounds, and ambience of San Francisco's colorful past. Nancy Olmsted has been collecting photographs and information about the Ferry Building for twenty-five years. A historian specializing in the San Francisco waterfront, her previous books include Ferryboats: A San Francisco Tradition, Scow Schooners of San Francisco Bay, and Vanished Waters: History of San Francisco's Mission Bay. She lives and works in Kentfield, California.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (2007) BEFORE YOU VISIT SAN FRANCISCO FOR THE FIRST TIME, OR BEFORE YOU RETURN -- AND FOR NATIVES PLANNING TOMORROW'S DAY, TAKE A LOOK AT SAN FRANCISCO AS NEVER BEFORE. Over 1,140 unique S.F. underground photojournalism photos you will not see anyplace else! A Noah's Ark of Recurring Celebration: San Francisco Annual Event History - Winners of the Human Race ... Storytellin' Muni Drivers 20th Anniversary Edition (history & oral journalism). San Francisco, birthplace of United Nations and 49'ers is about being real. At least 70 of the 142 annual events are put on by non-profit groups to support non-profit causes to help others; the other 70 events help support non-profit causes. We're a city that cares about people. San Franciscans, visitors to-and-from the Bay Area, and tourists from across the country and around the world have faith in San Francisco and what we stand for, in our good will, creativity, and diversity ...and respect San Francisco historically as a haven of social justice for immigrants fleeing war, slavery, starvation and poverty, and as the friendliest, most creative, openly diverse and welcoming city in the world. We've historically documented that unspoken social contract, spirit and human accomplishment in a unique book about a unique city, and why it's a travel destination for pleasure seekers and business people for their conventions, from around the world.
