I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and always enjoyed going to SF, but this one I never got to enjoy - the old elegant Cliff House.
To the right out of view of this photo was where the now torn-down Playland-At-The-Beach was. Cool place and a shame they tore it down.
Water's freezing cold but surfers love it there. Strong undertow.
The photo is dated 1907, but the caption claims:
“On January 13, 1887, the schooner Parallel crashed right below the Cliff House and caused severe damage to the structure of the building. The Cliff House was restored and continued to operate for two more years before a chimney fire destroyed it.”
