In Search of Greenwich 2000 in San Francisco
We went in search of Greenwich 2000 (and found it!)
From Coit Tower > at Hyde > beyond Larkin > beyond Octavia > beyond Buchanan > to End |
|
Greenwich at Hyde See the map of Greenwich (it is un-named) but marked by an + |
|
Looking back down "Greenwich" to the Coit Tower in the distance. This second section of Greenwich is quite short and steep. The UPS van delivering on Greenwich. |
|
The second section of "Greenwich" starts close to Hyde.
|
|
This photo illustrates the beautiful architecture and the steepness of the incline at the junction of Greenwich and Hyde (note angle of the vehicles) |
|
The cable cars run down Hyde crossing Greenwich
|
|
The cable car continues past Greenwich to Lombard Street (where it is at its steepest and most famous) down to the Bay.
With the island of Alcatraz in the distance. |
|
It starts to get steep beyond Hyde and the street soon runs out as we reach the brow the the hill. Greenwich becomes a footpath through a small park.
|
|
We once again catch a glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge through the trees on a small park on the far side of the hill. |
|
|
|
It look likes it down-hill from here! |
|
The FedEx van on Greenwich (the "World on Time") - you would expect to find it delivering on Greenwich! |
|
We arrive at the junction with Larkin. Greenwich 1300 is in sight! Greenwich 2000 still seems a long way away! |
|
|
|
From Coit Tower > at Hyde > beyond Larkin > beyond Octavia > beyond Buchanan > to End |
We head down a very steep (and dark) path to the next
section of Greenwich.
We arrive at the longest section of Greenwich which runs
uninterrupted... 
But it still steep down-hill.
