Gotta say my 1st reaction was "Sheah but, it was pretty damned convenient!)

On reflection the new and beautiful delineation between the Wharfs and Piers is much more visually pleasing.

Wondering how long it will be before somebody buys Alcatraz, knocks down the old prison, and builds luxury condos.

Well, maybe. But the ugliest thing San Francisco ever saw is still Speaker of the House - Thanks to Ryan aborting the election in 2018 , and dragging 25 other RINO-GROPElites with him.

Drivers could now swoop off the Bay Bridge and find themselves on Broadway in North Beach and Chinatown in a matter of minutes.

Yeah, how dare residents and commuters want a less painful drive when journalists were there to whine about it.

From everything I hear, the City is much uglier now than it was back then.

Most older cities got ruined by the new expressways.

The routes seem ill planned and often destroyed once beautiful neighborhoods. Walling off neighborhoods into ghettos which became slums and are now war zones

Just once I’m gonna agree with SFGate.

That was a nasty looking freeway. In exactly the wrong place. Shoulda been a tunnel.

Current iteration is slow as you said, but far nicer.

I believe that SF is the only major city that you can’t drive through on an Interstate.

Remembering the ugliest thing San Francisco ever built

They should rebuild it, so travelers don't have to wade through a cesspool, manure pile, swamp, ... and a bathhouse or two.

They should worry about cleaning up the homeless encampments along with the crap and syringes on the sidewalks first.
