View of SS Jeremiah O'Brien, and Alcatraz Island.

It’s not the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, it’s San Francisco’s very own Pier 43 Arch built in 1914, and used to load and unload rail cars on and off ferries. One of my top five favorite arches in the world. Arches have a place in my heart since they have enabled us to build different types of buildings where one can stroll through, or have monumental historical values and serves a purpose to the communities.

Good view of the island 🏝️ of Alcatraz.

So clean, many restaurants and bars, beautiful view, they have a lot of souvenir stores, must try their local food. We love this place.

Nice place for sightseeing and pictures. You really get an old timey feeling. You can see Alcatraz from here!

This is where rail cars used to be loaded onto boats to cross the bay. Evening has beautiful views of the bay and the far shore...

I started with a boat tour the Golden State bridge and then I rolled the Big bus around San Fran also had lunch at the chowder House which the clam sandwich was amazing and the fish and chips I'll be back here next year with the kiddos

Very lovely place, especially during sunset

Aside from being a great place to photograph, the street next to it offers a wide variety of stands, such as fruit and taco ones. Both of these were delicious and a fun experience. I highly recommend them

One of the docks in the port of San Francisco, California. Place where thousands and thousands of immigrants who arrived by boat to America crossed.

Took a very informative tour to see the Golden Gate bridge and I learnt some history about San Francisco too 😀👍

Nice place to see to alkatraz and the bay. (You can't see the Golden Gate Bridge from here)

No more words needed. Simply amazing and beautiful

Was able to catch the views with a rainbow, followed by a typical sunset.

Loved walking through the piers although it was a bit rainy that did not stop us and other tourist. This place is full of history.

I want to know the history of this ferry arch.I've done a lot of research, but it doesn't come up with all that much detail, and it's a mystery why the railroad rails are pulled over there.I wonder if they were moving freight cars from the ship I feel a great romanceIf there are actual photos or movies from that time, or videos using computer graphics, I would love to see them.The waves may have caused the freight cars to slip off the rails, but I think they were made using a really high level of technology.The technology of the old people is very wonderful

Good tourist place.
