Looks at how a city used to run—the old transport systems, former city halls, stores, theaters and cinemas, gas stations and car showrooms, restaurants, and people on the sidewalk.


Looks at how a city used to run—the old transport systems, former city halls, stores, theaters and cinemas, gas stations and car showrooms, restaurants, and people on the sidewalk Aspects of lost San Francisco that are examined here include the Victorian Alcatraz, Cliff House Hotel before it burned down, the early Embarcadero, the devastation of the 1906 earthquake, horse-drawn streetcars, the grandeur of the Sutro Baths both outside and in, the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition buildings, the changes made to combat a possible Japanese invasion during World War II, and some of the key hippie stores on Haight-Ashbury before the area became more upscale.

Dennis Evanosky and Eric J. Kos publish the Alameda Sun, a weekly newspaper across the bay from San Francisco. Dennis has written three books about Bay Area history. Eric graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1977. He has written for and designed various publications before forming Stellar Media Group Inc. in 2001. Dennis and Eric first teamed up in 2004 to write East Bay Then and Now and in 2010 Los Angeles from the Air Then and Now. They are also the authors of Lost San Francisco.
