I put together this Instagram reel highlighting my recent visit to the Naiad Cove exhibit at the former Cliff House restaurant in San Francisco. It’s a fantastic exhibit. Make sure to check it out if you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Notice how different the waterfront was back in 1849. Market Street runs into the water at 1st Street. The Embarcadero and the Ferry Building (built in 1898) didn’t exist yet.Click here to see full-sized image.
1906 San Francisco Earthquake Photo Exhibits
Yesterday, there was an article on SFGate about two new photographic exhibits commemorating the centennial of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake: 1906 Earthquake: A Disaster in Pictures (SF MOMA) and After the Ruins, 1906 and 2006: Rephotographing the San Francisco Earthquake and Fire (Legion of Honor).
Related to this, the Bancroft Library has created an online exhibit that includes an interactive map and a panoramic view of the earthquake destruction. And there is an upcoming exhibit at the California Historical Society featuring photos of the 1906 quake taken by Jack London.
