Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Working through the mapping on these, some great stuff here!

Ferry Building, June 1922 A view northeast on Market from about Steuart. Streetcars, people ,and the Ferry Building decorated for the Shriners Convention. #sfmemory #sfhistory

Thousands outside Terminal 1 at the Minneapolis airport now.

Brisbane, 1956 The Candlestick Causeway for US101 Bayshore Freeway being constructed over the open waters of San Francisco Bay. I ride my bike this way to visit my sister in San Bruno (ok sometimes go around the other side of San Bruno Mountain) #sfhistory #construction #sfmemory

look what they’re doing to my beautiful city. this is bovino’s massive armed convoy, rolling through the Wedge, one of the nicest, friendliest residential areas in Minneapolis, doing nothing but posturing, starting fights, and then deploying chemical weapons at a park many children play in

Market near Sutter, 1968 Bart Construction on Market Street, this block is virtually unrecognizable today save for the small footprint of the former Stacey's Bookstore. Part of the James Martin /Tiffany Cabinet slides. #sfhistory #sanfrancisco #neon #sfmemory sfmemory.org/TiffanyCabinet/

Coast Guard rescue drills at Ocean Beach right now on my #bikeride #sanfrancisco

Playland, circa 1948 My father shot this night view near the streetcar turnaround at Cabrillo around 1948 or so with his Speedgraphic camera. He loved Playland. #sfmemory #sfhistory

Tomorrow night 6:30 in the Sunset #sanfrancisco #wbb

Sunrise from Russian Hill, 1972 Working through a lot of slides by John Holtzclaw. Usually I like to fill in complete information about what's depicted, but this one has me stumped. I don't care, I'll include it anyway. I imagine I'll figure it out at some point. #sanfrancisco #sfmemory

Hey SF friends. You may know that Brady and I have become big women's basketball fans. Our great niece McKenna plays for one of the best high school basketball schools in the country. This Wednesday night 6:30pm at St. Ignatius is one of your last chances to see her locally

Brock solved one of the mysteries. Thank you! The car is right about where the basketball court is in Crystol Red Park & I believe one of the houses visible on the right is 1670 Franklin (the one in front has been demolished. ) behind the pantograph is 1611 Franklin #berkeley #keysystem #sfmemory

Key System Mysteries East Bay Transit historians I need your help. Coming soon to SFMemory but I just can't find accurate locations. I have 2 on the Westbrae line near Hopkins, one labelled as Arlington Ave, one as Piedmont Shuttle. Help me out! #berkeley #transit #keyroute #streetcar

Church & Market, Jan 21, 1941 A cloudburst dumped almost 3/4" of rain & flooded the intersection. This is a view northerly across the intersection toward what's now the Safeway parking lot. (a recent scan from the Emiliano Echeverria/Randolph Brandt Collection) #sfmemory #sfhistory #sanfrancisco

A #waymo and an #sfmuni bus have frozen traffic here at Noe & 30th.

10th Ave near Irving, circa 1969 Engine company 22 , SF Landmark number 29. Decommissioned in 1962 & sold at auction in 1969. This image is part of a new project to scan a collection of about 1400 stereo Kodachrome slides dated from 1959 to 1970 showing houses & buildings around SF #sfhistory

19th & Folsom, 1930 & recently Looking through the recently public domained images at @sfpubliclibrary.bsky.social I came across this unidentified building (AAB-2731) listed as "Merchants Lunch Restaurant"(wrong) It looked familiar & there were just enough clues to find it. #sfhistory #sanfrancisco

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

I always loved this song, 14 years ago, before I lost me hearing, I found this version, not sure why it brought me to tears this morning, maybe I realized how much I miss music but also because this still resonates for me. 2026: reconnect with the things you love www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlE1...

Ocean Beach, December 31, 1966 An unknown photographer watched the sun go down on the last day of the year 59 years ago. With the help of some great volunteers I hit a milestone of 10,000 images on the site, I'm lucky that I get to do exactly what I want & happy to put this year behind us. #sfmemory

More Christmas Traditions "Did I mention she's now my wife?" @peephole.bsky.social #mrsclaus

Christmas Eve, 1910 Yeah I've seen the plaque on Lotta's Fountain, yeah I've seen pictures of the crowd, but Woody's telling of Luisa Tetrazzini's Christmas Gift to San Francisco brings to life (and chills down my spine) www.sanfranciscostory.com/tetrazzinis-... #sfhistory

Durkee's Famous Foods, Berkeley 1977 Not sure about this one, but I think this big sign was visible to the Eastshore Freeway just north of Ashby. Do you remember it? #berkeley #neon #demolished

Great book! Highly recommended

Stockton near Broadway, 1977 A line of theatre-goers headed to the Times Theatre for $1 movies. The times closed decades ago and Hing Lung Co. only recently moved out. John Holtzclaw Photo #sfhistory

Great night at Lost Landscapes last night, if you were there, let me know. Maybe you're going tonight! (first time ever I didn't take any pictures of it, here's a favorite of mine from a few years back)

Musée Mécanique circa 1982 My sister, my niece, and unidentified person

Looking back on some recent SFMemory updates, these early 60s Western Addition Redevelopment shots by Cecil Hurd knock me out. They’re all here: sfmemory.org/search/index... #sfhistory #sfmemory

Did anyone see or hear about a bicycle-pedestrian collision on Saturday during the Parkrun event on Sunset Dunes (Great Highway) near Vicente?

Davis Street, 1971c Just something great about this John Holtzclaw image from underneath the Embarcadero Freeway ramps with the Alcoa Building in the background, part of the recent SFMemory.org update #sfhistory #sfmemory

Final night at Rena Bransten Gallery. Closing up the space at Minnesota Street Project

Marin County Mystery, 1956 Having trouble with this one & need some help. I think this is US101 & Blithedale, but I can't find any extant buildings to back me up, lot has changed there of course. The road sign San Rafael 6 miles ahead, Mill Valley 2 miles to the left. Somebody set me straight

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Suspected this would happen

Gilman & Curtis, Berkeley, 1941 A view northerly along the Key System G-line & Santa Fe Railroad routes. Elevated Bart track now run along here. (I've ridden my bike a few times along the Ohlone Greenway here) I'm not exactly sure how this picture was taken, anybody know? #sfhistory #sfmemory

Happy to have helped my old friend Tom find a picture of his car, thanks to @peterhartlaub.bsky.social for taking up the challenge. This is why I do this. #sfhistory

I wrote this story on a tip from @davidgallagher.bsky.social, after one of the 1952 race cars surfaced in Penn Valley. Car-free JFK forever. But if the owner gets this running I think we should allow 1 lap at 10 miles per hour just for history. Gift link 🏎️ 🎁 ⬇️ www.sfchronicle.com/totalsf/arti...

So my great niece is going to Iowa to play basketball (next year) and i think by then everyone in the state will be wearing one of these! (I’m holding out for the McDub version) check these folks out, they’re cool www.raygunsite.com/collections/...

Big Al's, 1968 Cashing in on the Bonnie & Clyde craze, here's "Creation of Love" Who knew those 1930s bank robbers wore leopard print underwear? (which they later take off) And I'm sorry but no shots of nude Bat Girl #sfhistory

A trip to the Cliff, circa 1956 a couple new negative scans (coming soon to SFMemory) Some folks at the Cliff House and Sutro Baths, and apparently very excited after riding the Sky-Tram #sfhistory #sfmemory
