This Chile section includes puya and araucaria, very rare plants This is the leaning millennium towerĪnd the salesforce tower, tallest in the west coast (that one in LA doesn’t count to me, I count habitable floor height, not spires)įun and weird plants were featured in several sections The views up here are spectacular, with all the new soma buildings showing off. I recommend the elevators up and escalators down, these cages will fill in with the vines in the years ahead These giant boulders show you to the rooftop park, which is several acres and includes a veritable botanical garden Not many buses at the time in this bright, clean contrast to the former bus stationĪ bit of an homage to the era that old station was built in The buses from the east bay can take this special offramp from the bay bridge that skips a bit of traffic It is primarily a transit station, but until caltrain and high speed rail get up here, it’s just for buses

It undulates across three blocks south of the financial district It’s OK, but the original glass facade was much more striking The center is covered in this Penrose design from a famous bay area mathematician This was about 1 week before the $1 billion bus terminal was shut down for nine months after a major support beam started tearing in half I was lucky enough to be working in SF last summer and took time to go to Salesforce Park, the newest botanical garden in the west. We interrupt this series on the olympic national park to bring you a more local and recent post.
