Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few cities are so dramatically identified with their environment as San Francisco—the landscape of hills, the expansive bay, the engulfing fog, and even the deadly fault line shifting below. Yet most residents think of the city itself as separate from the natural environment on which it depends. In Our Better Nature, Philip J. Dreyfus recounts the history of San Francisco from Indian village to world-class metropolis, focusing on the interactions between the city and the land and on the generations of people who have transformed them both. Dreyfus examines the ways that San Franciscans remade the landscape to fit their needs, and how their actions reflected and affected their ideas about nature, from the destruction of wetlands and forests to the creation of Golden Gate and Yosemite parks, the Sierra Club, and later, the birth of the modern environmental movement. Today, many San Franciscans seek to strengthen the ties between cities and nature by pursuing more sustainable and ecologically responsible ways of life. Consistent with that urge, Our Better Nature not only explores San Francisco’s past but also poses critical questions about its future. Dreyfus asks us to reassess our connection to the environment and to find ways to redefine ourselves and our cities within nature. Only with such an attitude will San Francisco retain the magic that has always charmed residents and visitors alike.

Download or read book Report on the Improvement and Development of the Transportation Facilities of San Francisco written by Bion Joseph Arnold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Improvement and Development of the Transportation Facilities of San Francisco: Submitted to the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors, City of San Francisco Of the needs of the various districts, those of the panama-paci fic Exposition site are certainly the most pressing. The present service capacity is barely one-third of that necessary, with only one line - Polk Street - in any sense adequate for maximum service, and this terminating over one mile from the main court of the Ex position. However estimates may vary as to the record attendance, a weekly maximum travel of people per hour probably repre sents the greatest demand for which street railway investment seems warranted. This represents more passengers than travel to their homes during the rush hour of a normal business day in San Fran cisco. Unless tunnels are constructed, parallel lines will be neces sary, with duplication of investment. Under limitations of street congestion and grades, 30 seconds headway, 100 passengers average per car, or a total capacity of persons per hour, represents the ability of service through each available entrance throat, which is the controlling factor. This exceeds the total travel on Market Street during the evening rush hour. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
