SAN FRANCISCO
My two favorite places to be are in the middle of a bustling urban center or outdoors in the middle of nature. Since I live in San Francisco, it’s often possible to be in both locations at once. One Sunday morning last month I went for a short hike through Sutro Forest, an 80-acre hill where eucalyptus trees draped in layer upon layer of vines soar 200 feet high, birds chirp and wildflowers bloom. This place feels like an enchanted forest, especially on a foggy morning with rising mist. I should add that it’s located right in the middle of the city, between the neighborhoods of Cole Valley and the Inner Sunset. Signs mark a network of maintained trails, one fittingly called Fairy Gates. If you have the time, I suggest exploring one of the city's lesser known retreats.

Bill Sutton CHEF CONCIERGE, INTERCONTINENTAL SAN FRANCISCO MEMBER LES CLEFS D'OR, USA
Q: Any tips for exploring San Francisco’s waterfront?
A: While most people explore the waterfront between the Ferry Building and Fisherman’s Wharf, I like to wander south towards AT&T Park. You’ll find local restaurants with great views and even better food, and there’s public art to admire along with views of the Bay Bridge and Yerba Buena Island. And just south of the bridge you’ll find a San Francisco institution, Red’s Java House. Fans of drive-ins, diners and dives will feel right at home, and who doesn’t like a cheeseburger served on sourdough bread?

Q: What’s an underrated gem that you point out to travelers?
BEST TIP Spend time walking, eating and shopping in the diverse neighborhoods that make visiting San Francisco like visiting dozens of different cities in one.
A: Liguria Bakery is a family-owned business. The space is not terribly inviting; the menu is limited to focaccia bread; they only accept cash; and the people behind the counter are surly. Why go? Because of the traditional Ligurian focaccia of course! They open at 8 am and close when they run out of bread, usually about noon or so. If you decide to stop here for a slice, I guarantee that the next time you come to San Francisco this will be the
one place you’ll be sure to re-visit. Some traditions are worth keeping. Q: What are you looking forward to in the Bay Area this month?
A: The Union Street Easter Parade & Spring Celebration is a familyfriendly event highlighting the creative, wacky and delicious side of the season. Besides the food vendors, children’s games and tasteful wares from the local merchants, the Easter Bonnet Contest is one of my favorite events of the year. And yes, last year there was a hat made with real live bunnies!

WELLNESS
ON THE RUN Where to log miles in the city
the Embarcadero is an unusually wide and flat stretch of sidewalk that hugs the city’s coastline for more than six miles. With the bay on one side, and downtown skyscrapers on the other, the views are hard to beat. For the full experience, begin your run at AT&T Park. The continuous path runs alongside vintage streetcars and takes you under the Bay Bridge, alongside public artworks including Cupid’s Span, and eventually past Pier 39 before ending at Fisherman’s Wharf. The only downside to this route is that it’s so popular; be prepared to share the road with countless other joggers, bikers, tourists and Giants fans on game days.
This flat, coastal path extends five miles if you run the complete path from Fort Mason to the Golden Gate Bridge. A tradition among runners is to high-five the sign featuring a pair of life-size hands at Fort Point after completing the run.

On the Water A buzzing waterfront reflects San Francisco’s maritime past By Renee Brincks
PHOTO CREDIT GOES HERE
LONG BEFORE VISITORS were cruising from San Francisco to Sausalito via scenic ferry rides, cargo ships carried commodities to the growing coastal city. Before crews constructed the famous Ferry Building and piers that welcomed those ships, entrepreneurs filled in shoreline and collected berthing fees from fishing boats. And in 1848, back before San Francisco’s population was big enough to keep many fishing fleets in business, the seaside village recorded just eight vessel calls.

PREVIOUS SPREAD, OPPOSITE PAGE AND THIS PAGE: ©ANGELA DECENZO
The Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market contributed to the realization that the waterfront could be vital again.
The state established the Port of San Francisco in 1863; today, 154 years later, the Port oversees 7.5 miles of wharves, piers and seawall that establish the city’s modern shoreline. Many downtown structures are built on land created by the seawall’s construction. Between Fisherman’s Wharf and AT&T Park, the seawall doubles as a public promenade popular with walkers, runners and bicyclists. Some of the city’s most exciting visitor destinations, like the Exploratorium science museum, a cruise ship terminal and an under-construction sports arena, have popped up along or near that promenade, but the central waterfront didn’t always draw visitors. In the late 1800s, it was a hub of trade and transportation. Ships on San Francisco Bay carried everything from gold to mail to sugar, and the Ferry Building at the foot of Market Street first welcomed passengers in 1898. Less than a decade later, the 1906 earthquake and fire devastated the city. Because San Francisco was so important to the sugar industry, Hawaiian shipping companies supported reconstruction efforts— and some downtown buildings still feature the pineapples carved into their cornices by builders. The Ferry Building survived the disaster, however, and soon served as many as 50,000 commuters per day. “Before the great bridges were built in the 1930s, the Ferry Building was the busiest terminal in the whole country— busier than Grand Central Station or Penn Station. It was the second-busiest terminal in the whole world,” says Nolte. Demand for ferry transport dropped after the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges paved the way for automobiles. Construction of the two-tiered Embarcadero Freeway followed, cutting the Ferry Building off from the city. As cargo shipping moved south, the central waterfront became quiet.
The Embarcadero Freeway came down after the 1989 earthquake, and its removal triggered a shoreline renaissance. A successful one-time harvest festival near the Ferry Building inspired a weekly farmers market, complete with cooking demonstrations and educational programs. That market’s popularity caught the attention of the developers who restored the Ferry Building and filled the stalls with local food purveyors. Today, up to 30,000 people sample seasonal produce at the Saturday Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, and thousands more shop at offshoots there each Tuesday and Thursday. “The market contributed to the realization that the waterfront could be vital again,” says Dave Stockdale, formerly of the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture (CUESA), the organization that coordinates the market. “This demonstrated that, yes, people would come out here, and they would hang out and have a good time.” Twenty-eight years later, San Francisco’s shoreline again buzzes with activity. On weekends, the E-Embarcadero, the city’s newest historic streetcar line, takes riders along the waterfront to destinations including Fisherman’s Wharf, Pier 39, the Exploratorium and AT&T Park. Construction made the western side of Fisherman’s Wharf friendlier for pedestrians and cyclists. Wharf visitors enjoy unmatched photo opportunities, fresh clam chowder and access to the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park; guests out before 9 am might even catch some fishing industry action on Pier 45, home to the West Coast's largest concentration of commercial fish processors and distributors. Pier 39’s shops, museums, street performers and sea lions captivate guests, too, and many sport fishing and sightseeing tours depart from the area.

Preparations for the America’s Cup sailing race, which took place on the San Francisco Bay in 2013, produced many waterfront developments, including dining and entertainment venues on Pier 29 and the new James R. Herman Cruise Terminal at Pier 27. The terminal has become the city’s new gateway for cruise ship guests. They’re treated to views of Coit Tower, Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge and other iconic Bay Area sites. The Exploratorium moved to Pier 15 in 2013, and the museum capitalizes on its prime location with a second-floor observatory and a 27-foot outdoor harp that sings as bay breezes blow. South of the Ferry Building, the Golden State Warriors have broken ground on the new waterfront Chase Center in Mission Bay. With its plaza, restaurant and retail space and adjacent 5.5 acre bayfront park, the Mission Bay development will revitalize the neighborhood south of AT&T Park, home of the 2010, 2012 and 2014 World Series-winning San Francisco Giants. Complementing these attractions are
more than 60 waterfront restaurants—including several popular breakfast spots and cafes with outdoor seating—plus countless recreational activities along the promenade that parallels the Embarcadero. Visitors can walk, jog, bike, skate or catch a pedicab, enjoying spectacular bay views along the way. “With each development on our piers, we extend that promenade around the pier so that people can walk along the water’s edge,” says Monique Moyer, former executive director of the Port of San Francisco. “You can see the sights, be outdoors and get your exercise, and you can do it all without ever getting in a car.” With buses, underground trains, cable cars, streetcars and ferries operating within blocks of the waterfront, public transportation is the mode of choice for many.
