The Embarcadero and a Waterfront Park

This view of San Francisco's Embarcadero also shows a small park that's been built into the waterfront. The Embarcadero has been transformed in the last few years into a lively, scenic boulevard. This view was taken from a bus window as the bus was traveling on the Bay Bridge, looking to the north-northwest.

Continuing the public transit theme, you can also see a boarding platform for one of the light-rail lines of the San Francisco Municipal Railway between the rows of palm trees in the foreground.

The photo was taken at 8 am one day in July 2006. That's why the photo has some pronounced shadows, including one from a suspension tower of the Bay Bridge.
