San Francisco is a truly unique city and this is certainly reected in some of the lesser known attractions available. With all this in mind, we have put together this guide to introduce you to the hidden gems of San Francisco, highlighting the city’s best-kept secrets. Lands End This wild and rocky corner of San Francisco is well loved by residents but it might not be somewhere that instantly springs to mind when it comes to visiting the city. It should, however, as Lands End (within Golden Gate National Recreation Area) is able to oer stunning views of the water, pretty hillsides, glimpses of old shipwrecks, and a number of fascinating features such as ruins and a labyrinth, not to mention beautiful wildlife. David Shaw of Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy told us more about this must-visit spot: “Lands End is the rugged and wild edge of San Francisco where the Pacic Ocean meets a rocky shore just west of the Golden Gate. The views are spectacular looking out to the Pacic to Seal Rock and Mile Rock from the coastal trail and back toward the city in the other direction with views to the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands. Because Lands End is outside the Golden Gate, it is possible to often see pilot whales, dolphins, migrating California gray whales, and humpback whales.

  • Tonga Room, S.F
    Sept. 5, 2004---- SAN FRANCISCO -- The ups and downs of World War II were played out at the corner of California and Mason streets here on Nob Hill. The history is as cloudy as a third mai tai, but I have a theory. In 1939 the romantic Top of the Mark restaurant and lounge opened on the 19th floor of The Mark Hopkins Hotel, 999 California St. The lounge with the 360-degree view of San Francisco became a favorite place for Pacific-bound servicemen to share one last drink with friends and lovers. The Fairmont Hotel across the street at 950 Mason saw the high drama at the Top of the Mark, so in 1945 it turned its basement swimming pool into the S.S. Tonga tiki bar for servicemen returning from the Pacific. Tonga is the island in the heart of the South Pacific, east of Fiji and south of Samoa. The S.S. Tonga was one of America's first Polynesian themed restaurants and cocktail lounges. The dance floor was built on the remains from the deck of the S.S. Forrester, one of the last tall ships that sailed between San Francisco and the South Seas. After Don the Beachcombers and Trader Vics washed across America's shores in the 1950s, the restaurant was converted into The Tonga Room and Hurricane Bar. Thatched huts were then built around the room, surrounding the swimming pool. The Tonga Room is still going strong. Visitors still drink under the huts. There are 19 drinks on the bar menu and they include the power-packed Tonga Mai Tai and a Scorpion (rum and brandy mixed with fruit juices).

  • Memo to the Historic Preservation Commission HEARING DATE: MAY 15, 2019
    Memo to the Historic Preservation Commission HEARING DATE: MAY 15, 2019 DATE: May 15, 2019 TO: Historic Preservation Commission FROM: Michelle Taylor, Sr. Preservation Planner - (415) 575-9197 RE: Landmark Designation Work Program Quarterly Report This report outlines activities of the Department’s Survey and Designation Team from January 1, 2019 to March 31,2019 (Q3 of fiscal year 2018/2019). On January 16, 2019, the HPC adopted a resolution to initiate landmark designation of 2851-2861 24th street (Galería de la Raza/Studio 24 Building,) as an individual Article 10 landmark. On February 6, 2019, the HPC adopted a resolution to recommend the Board of Supervisors amend the Article 10 landmark designation of the former Our Lady of Guadalupe Church at 906 Broadway, San Francisco City Landmark No. 204, to include both the interior and exterior character defining features. On February 6, 2019, the HPC adopted a resolution to initiate landmark designation of 2031 Bush Street (the Kinmon Gakuen Building,) as an individual Article 10 landmark. On February 20, 2019, Planning Department staff presented before the HPC an overview of the Citywide Cultural Resources Survey, survey methodology; outreach plan; Arches data collection and data management platform; survey phasing; and, information on survey staffing and budget. LANDMARK DESIGNATIONS During the reporting quarter, seven Landmark Designations and one change to Article 11 were approved: • Benedict-Gieling House 22 Beaver Street, the HPC adopted a resolution on September 19, 2018 to initiate landmark designation and on November 7, 2018 adopted a resolution to recommend landmark designation to the BOS.

  • MEMO to the Historic Preservation COMMISSION HEARING DATE: OCTOBER 21, 2020
    MEMO TO THE historic preservation COMMISSION HEARING DATE: OCTOBER 21, 2020 Case Number: None - Informational Project: Preservation Activities Annual Reporting Staff Contact: Marcelle Boudreaux - 628-652-7375 [email protected] Recommendation: Informational This memorandum outlines recommendations for an updated strategy for reporting to the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) on activities by the preservation staff of the Planning Department. Background The most recent proposal for reporting preservation activities was shared with the HPC on May 15, 2019. In this intervening time, there have been management and staffing changes at the Department, the Covid-19 pandemic shifted parameters for how staff does work and engages the public, and the Planning Commission and Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) have both issued Resolutions centering the Department’s work on racial and social equity. Therefore, the reporting structure has been re-considered to balance staff capacity while updating the HPC and the public on key activities. A bi-annual, detailed report of multiple separate activities would consume staff time that could be better allocated to preservation activities. Although some statistics could be automated, all require staff to review and edit, and a majority would require staff to manually compile data. Further, individual activities may warrant more frequent or less frequent reporting updates. Proposed Staff proposes leveraging existing, required reporting timelines for the Department as well as expected programmatic updates from sister agencies. High level program details will be included in the reporting as well as maps, or other visuals, illustrating geographic distribution and progress, which could include, but not be limited to, number of application types by Supervisorial district, activities in Planning-defined neighborhood and/or Quadrant, and maps of application types by disadvantaged communities (DAC) data being developed by the Planning Department.

  • Cruise Planners
    Sandy White [email protected] www.sandlertravel.com 832-305-7825 SAN FRANCISCO, CA OVERVIEW Introduction San Francisco, California, is a world-class destination, a favorite of international travelers and domestic tourists alike. An unmatched spectrum of dining experiences, first-class cultural events, exceptional scenery and a pleasant climate combine for an enjoyable visit. Compared with cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Paris or London, San Francisco is a small, almost provincial city. It is a mere 8 mi/13 km from the Embarcadero, on the Bay, to the Great Highway and the Pacific Ocean. Despite the notable influx of tech companies such as Google, Facebook, SalesForce and Twitter, tourism remains its prime industry, and the city has a thriving convention business that keeps its hotels and restaurants busy throughout the year. You'll find San Francisco one of the world's most scenic cities—the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, Chinatown, the crazy quilt of Victorians, precipitous hills, extraordinary restaurants and, of course, earthquakes and fog. See the white-capped waters of San Francisco Bay, eat crab cakes along Fisherman's Wharf, attend a free concert in Golden Gate Park or a game with one of the Bay Area teams—the Warriors, 49ers or the Giants. San Francisco's roller-coastering landscape cuts through dozens of distinct neighborhoods and its diverse population is every bit as colorful as the city's iconic landmarks and topography. Sights—The Golden Gate Bridge; a cable-car ride over Nob Hill; the exquisitely restored Palace of Fine Arts; views of the city atop Coit Tower and Telegraph Hill; Saints Peter and Paul church in North Beach; Golden Gate Park; Fisherman's Wharf; a ferry ride to Sausalito; the postcard Victorian homes at Alamo Square, Haight-Ashbury and famed mansions of Pacific Heights; goods at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market outside the Ferry Building; Lombard Street, the crookedest street in the U.S.
