    Improvements to Powell Street Station Are Included As Part of the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency's Mid-Market Plan. This H

    POWELL STREET PLANNING Improvements to Powell Street Station are included as part of the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency’s Mid-Market Plan. This has been enhanced by the recommended improvements to Hallidie Plaza that were identified in the 2004 charrette funded in part by the owners of the soon-to- open (2006) Bloomingdale’s at San Francisco Center. Planning is also underway to make best use of the station space, which was studied in the 2004 Capacity Plan and found to be constricted in key areas (near the BART Police facility, in the mezzanine corridor between the fare gate areas, etc.) which may be affected when and if Muni’s Central Subway is connected to BART at this station. The Muni Central Subway project is proposed to connect to Powell station and to the new Transbay Terminal Project. The Powell station was studied in 2004 to analyze the critical areas of platform capacity, vertical circulation (stairs/escalators) capacity, and fare gate capacity. DEVELOPMENT BART is negotiating special entrance agreements with Forest City Development for a Bloomingdale’s entrance and with Millennium Partners and San Francisco Redevelopment Agency to consider what will become of the “tunnel” space between the station and and Yerba Buena Center. Owners of the Flood Building are also working with BART staff to address the possibilities of sub-street connections to the station. The Four Seasons high-rise tower, containing 150 housing units, 100 long-term hotel suites and 250 hotel rooms, is directly adjacent to the station and opened in 2002. Construction is underway at the adjacent Mexican Museum and the Jewish Museum in Yerba Buena Center.

Muni’s original proposal, unveiled last winter, called for eliminating the 35-Eureka’s current loop along Moffitt, Bemis and Addison streets and extend the route south along Diamond Street to serve the Glen Park BART station. The 35-Eureka proposal is part of the San Francisco Municipal Transpor- tation Agency’s Transit Effectiveness Project, which aims make the public transit system more efficient, reliable, safe and comfortable for its riders, in part by overhauling routes.

    THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE: A LEGAL HISTORY By John S. Caragozian San Francisco teems with icons: Alcatraz, cable cars, the Transamerica Pyramid. The greatest is the Golden Gate Bridge, an engineering and aesthetic marvel. A railroad bridge across the Golden Gate was first suggested in 1872 by Charles Crocker, one of the “Big Four” founders of the company that had built the western portion of the transcontinental railroad. The railroad ended up with a different route to San Francisco, and the bridge idea faded. Over 40 years later, a University of California engineering graduate-turned-journalist proposed a bridge in several San Francisco Bulletin editorials, but World War I diverted public interest. The editorials, though, caught the attention of San Francisco City Engineer Michael O’Shaughnessy. In 1917, he asked a bridge engineer visiting from Chicago, Joseph Strauss, to evaluate the Golden Gate proposal. See generally, Stephen Cassady, Spanning the Gate (1986), at 13-16. Strauss understood that a bridge posed a political challenge as well as an engineering one. Was a bridge needed? On the one hand, few people lived north of the Golden Gate; for example, Marin County had barely 27,000 people per the 1920 census. On the other hand, growing automobile traffic was straining the ferries that were the only link across the Golden Gate. Moreover, a bridge would enhance San Francisco’s commercial prominence with a direct link north. In 1920, Strauss completed a Golden Gate Bridge proposal, including a design, budget, and revenue projections. With then-current technology, no suspension bridge could span the entire Golden Gate.
