From the Ferry Building to Lotta’s Fountain, Market Street provides a cross section of San Francisco history as it slices diagonally across the city. Lining the city’s first boulevard, dubbed the Path of Gold as it was rebuilt after the 1906 earthquake, are historic buildings, monuments and modern skyscrapers. Hear the street’s relevance to everything from the Gold Rush to Bay Area Rapid Transit and vintage street cars.
This guided walk is offered for free by San Francisco City Guides every Tuesday at 1:30pm
Meet in front of Landmark at One Market, south side of market between Steuart & Spear.
No hills. Wheelchairs welcome. Public transportation: MUNI lines F, 2, 7, 14, 21, 66, 71.
