San Francisco and the Bay Area (and some Cleveland homesickness)

Featured Replies

Posted

Hello all.  I'm not a very regular poster, but I used to read the projects and construction board pretty regularly to find out what's going on in Cleveland. 

 

At the beginning of the year I got a new job and moved out to the Silicon Valley area.  I've actually had no shortage of job prospects in the Cleveland area but this was an opportunity I couldn't pass up.  Still, I miss my hometown so I checked back in to see if they had built the Medical Mart yet  :-)

 

I thought I would share some photos I've taken around San Francisco since I've been here.  You can click on the photos to see the larger versions in Flickr.

 

San Francisco skyline from the Coit Tower - if you're in SF, definitely make the hike up Telegraph hill to Coit Tower:

Transamerica through the trees:

Parks like these fill in a steep part of the street grid:

Really nice photos.  Hope you like it out here.  Your shot from Alcatraz is sensational.

Beautiful photos! San Francisco is an amazing city, and you're right about the hike up to Coit Tower; the views are some of the best in the city.

Great pictures & amazing city - I just spent a week out there myself and its never enough - until my money runs out :)

Beautiful!

Hey, thanks for all the kind words, everyone.  If you want to see more, check out my Flickr page.  And here's a link to all my photos of San Francisco.

 

SF is pretty unique in the number of places you can go to get amazing views of the city.  And I can't get enough of the Golden Gate Bridge...  it's not just a huge piece of infrastructure, it really is a work of art.

 

A couple more that I just uploaded:

i'm another ohio expat (by way of Cincinnati) living in SF.  One of these days, I'll post a photo thread, but I assure you it won't look this good.
