Yesterday I took the ferry to The City for an every-month lunch with MMR (Muriel, Margie & Rick). We've been doing this since 1985 - a good long while. We hit all the new restaurants and also repeat some. On my way to one of our repeats, One Market Restaurant, I passed this lush strip of green right off The Embarcadero. The 1989 earthquake damaged the Embarcadero Freeway that formerly occupied all this area, causing it to be (finally!) removed, and thereby creating the possibility for the wonderful urban space now surrounding The Ferry Building.
