My favourite San Francisco subway station – Forest Hill (née Laguna Honda) – celebrated its 100th birthday earlier this year.pic.twitter.com/P0efkcSFNn
It’s a bit of a miracle to even *have* a favourite subway station here. San Francisco has eight subway stations (plus a ghost one), and most of them are pretty awful (incl. the ghost one).pic.twitter.com/YCPSC6buHX
Ghost station? How have I lived here my whole life and never heard about this…
Yep! Let me know if you need help finding it (online).
Completely accidentally (or subconsciously) my walk took my right by the ghost subway station’s once entrances.pic.twitter.com/xZNR7p6DdM

(It is blowing my mind that the subway existed before some of those streets were even paved!)
Market street pretty much ended at Castro before the tunnel construction. The eastern end was an open cut up until 18th and Hattie. Many homes on the grid were demolished or moved.
I guess this is how cities grow – you build access -> people move in – but it’s so hard for me to see San Francisco unfinished. I was just there at 18th/Market/Storrie today! What a weird street that one is.
The tunnel is directly below Storrie. From there is is a straight line to West Portal. http://opensfhistory.org/Display/wnp36.00834.jpg …pic.twitter.com/RHj4ufPNru
Do you know why it became a street rather than residential block or a park?
