Discovering San Francisco: The Story and History Behind Famous Sites and Landmarks (Virtual)

Mon June 15, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

  • « Always Active Senior Exercise Class (Virtual)
  • Community Chat (Virtual) »
Story & History Behind Famous SF Sites

Why does Chinatown look the way it does? Why is the Palace of Fine Arts there? Why is the Golden Gate Bridge red? Is Coit Tower really designed to look like the nozzle of a fire hose? Just like most New Yorkers see the Statue of Liberty all the time and yet know little of its history, it’s easy to live in San Francisco and not know the story behind familiar sites. In this presentation, local tour guide Reed will share the “what” and “why” of Chinatown, the Palace of Fine Arts, the Golden Gate Bridge, Coit Tower, and other places that make San Francisco unique. Reed has been leading private tours of San Francisco for years via his company Small Car, Big Time Tours.

To join by phone, dial 888-475-4499 (toll free) or 669-900-6833 (local). Enter the Meeting ID: 947 3509 0322, then press # twice.

To join with video, click this link: https://zoom.us/j/94735090322 and wait in the “waiting room” until the activity is ready to start. To create a friendly environment and minimize interruptions, we will close the activity to new participants 15 minutes after the start time.

The above link will work on your tablet or your computer. You’ll be prompted to download a Zoom app the first time you use Zoom. If you’re using a PC or Mac, you can join from your web browser without using the Zoom software.
