San Francisco was once a wonderful place to live, laugh and love ❤

It still is... it still is..

[@harvdaguy]

i like the word once

[@AFaceintheCrowd01]

So cheap, too. Everybody was having a nice time on just survival-type jobs. It was a gas until about 1990, then things started to curdle. What we see today is stomach-turning.

[@troyw1843]

Great video!! Thanks for posting

[@dilippatel3268]

[@linoleluminum2017]

@Dr Wolfgang Chausser right on millie

[@caltom1427]

I rolled into SF in 1979. The city was our playground.

Back when $175 a month would get you a nice 1BR apt possibly with a bay view

[@edwardmiessner6502]

@Hans Hummer $600 a month possibly. I got the rental figure from a line in Armisted Maupin's Tales of the City. It was written at and set in that time.

[@linoleluminum2017]

@Dr Wolfgang Chausser take your grouchy ass somewhere else

[@Mark-yy2py]

Looks like something out of the Streets of San Francisco!

[@Murmeltje415]

I like that Song.

3:20 Wow, I remember my parents taking me to Omar Khayyam's when I was about 8-10 years old.

[@feltonscallion9564]

I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST MOVED TO SAN FRANCISCO, THEY WERE FILMING THE MOVIE TOWER INFERNO THE STREETS WERE BOCK OFF IN PLACES DOWN.

3:32 Lefty O'douls was one of the bars on my pub crawl, from Market St to Fisherman's Wharf. It had a HUGE wooden bar inside... is it still there?

[@pwp8737]

o'douls in Union Square closed a couple of years ago and relocated to Fisherman's Wharf. That second location closed also. Its owner has found himself in a slew of legal problems with city corruption.

What's happening at 2:23? I've never rode a trolley before.

[@SylkaChan]

Better than 60s here.

[@frankmiller3937]

forget Miami La noire 2 should take place in San francisco

[@ronmacksf]

The City is a collection of neighborhoods. How many in this film can you name?
I'll start:
North Beach ,home of the Hungry I.
Downtown - boring name I know. Did you know it is built largely on fill, some of which still contains ship hills abandoned in the 1849 gold rush era?

[@tomloft2000]

the 1st view is of Lombard St. known as the "crookedest street in the world".

Why is that city so expensive today?

[@yoncalla44]

This SF native says the city has always been an expensive place to live. -Tony Arioli

[@Lemoncatsf]

Tech industry. It’s definitely not the weather.

[@wildearth3992]

The liberal dream turn into a dystopia 😂

[@chuks051]

Back when California was red...
