These are tough to watch because my dad would take us kids to sf for a day trip on his days off from work. He was a longshoreman in Stockton CA for 36 years and worked many of the Ports in CA with his buddies. He'd show us the Port of SF and then we'd drive around town and see the sights - De Young museums and Park was one of them - and then we would go eat! The years were the late 1960's when we ventured out. I miss you daddy. 😿
San Francisco: before Vietnam, before the hippies, before Milk was murdered, before Jim Jones, before Dirty Harry. Looks so nice back then. This is obviously the early 60's, judging by the clothes and the cars; it even has more of a 1950's vibe. I was there as a little boy in '66 and '67, oblivious of much that was going on then (we lived in Sunnyvale and would take the train in). Then my daughter attended SFSU (what a sad place that is) beginning in 2001. Was just there with the wife on a cruise last year for a day. Love the city, the most beautiful city in California, but it was certainly a nicer place to live back when this video was made.
@@barath4545 lol This car chase scene was so realistic that I flew off my end seat at the theater when McQueen made a hard left on one of the streets of SF. I think I was a little bit engrossed in the movie. Friends sitting next to me laughed so hard and years later never let me forget that embarrassing moment! 😂😂
Thanks, this is one of the best, wish it were longer! Love the glimpse of I. Magnin, the queen of Union Square, in her white marble, and Mason St. by where I once lived, on Vallejo. The golden years.
Just another excellent restoration from a recent period. I grew up on the “other” hill where those cable car scenes were taken. It was a time everyone paid their .15 cent Muni car fare or kids had their Muni car ticket punched.
Beautiful city back then but you should see it now... it a veritable utopian paradise; the downtown streets are filled with highly ambitious, productive and very respectful people! If you want to live the American dream, downtown SF is your #1 destination... put a flower in your hair and feel the love!!
This is probably 1963 or so. I was born in San Francisco and was 13 that year, in 8th grade at A.P. Giannini Junior High School. We lived on 44th Avenue. It was a good time, though far from perfect. There were indeed homeless people, then called winos, and the streets were not perfectly clean. Those old cars made big oil slicks when parked on the street. My parents got divorced a few years later, after a lot of conflict and severe money problems. And so on. I loved the hippy era, though I was never one myself. That's when things got interesting for me.
Live in Brisbane Australia, people say Brisbane reminds them of San Fran. We have a lot of hills also. The hills in the city cbd are not quite as steep as these streets but some steep ones and in the surrounding suburbs for sure. Some of my, now gone to heaven rellies, lived in houses, where you had a very small footpath, with the front door of the home on the footpath, the rest of the house block fell away, never usable and the back of the home was held up on 30ft poles. Great views though!
This is like San Francisco in a alternate universe. Everyone is dressed well, no homeless on the streets, everything seems to be clean. Having visited San Francisco for work this summer certainly not like that any longer. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Obviously what they are doing in San Francisco today is not working, maybe they should try something else....
"maybe they should try something else...." They should but they won't. Instead they'll just double down and continue to push the policies that created the current situation saying "We didn't go far enough."
@@katie2893 Rush Limbaugh is a little difficult to listen to. He's been dead about 4 years. I did visit this past summer for work. You should read my initial post. I visited SF back in 1983 while in the military. The difference between SF in 1983 and 2023 is like night and day. Your city is being destroyed. I feel sorry for all of you. Good luck.
Actually half of the places filmed in the video are EXACTLY the same looking minus different cars. The only place that might look a little more downtrodden is Union square. Most of the city is still beautiful unfortunately the cost of living there now is absolutely insane at this point.
Is SF city making a big effort to keep the homeless & beggars away from Embarcadero station, Market Street, the Ferry Building & all the piers? Because I just did not see any in those areas.
THIS is the San Francisco I remember. When I was growing up we would go there at least once a month from where we lived in Santa Clara. Fisherman's Wharf, The Playland, Market St.,The Japanese Gardens, The Zoo. There were no streets filled with the homeless. Women dressed with furs and dressed with style and class. Not like today. Once in a while, you'd see the Hari Krishna. The streets almost everywhere were cleaner. I can't believe how awful the city has become. It's really sad for such a city to decay the way it had.
Wow.... Just thinking about you all hours ago about the last posted video and when the next would be... I can smell the naan catalytic converter car exhaust from here. Still we survived just fine.
Our cities appear increasingly run-down every decade or so and SF is not an exception. Just compare footage from the 1950s to today. Back then, everything was clean, vibrant, and well-organized. By the 1960s, signs of decline were already evident. Fast forward to the 1970s, and the deterioration is palpable. Poor urban planning only exacerbated the issue, leading to the creation of dead zones, especially downtown. Even in cities like San Francisco, while there are pockets of beauty, the majority of housing stock is aging and dilapidated, yet demanding exorbitant prices. Essentially, the overall quality of life has declined since the 1950s, with the exception of advancements in healthcare.
The contrast to today is so shocking that it may as well be from another planet or an alternate universe. This is what a culture and country in complete collapse looks like.
Uh actually most of the places in that video are great neighborhoods that are safe but unfortunately expensive to live in...the only sketchy place now that was in the video was Union square. I assure you if you go to Lombard Street it's not a dystopian wasteland like national media tries to paint it.
@@driddo5k282 I wasn't necessarily referring to that particular spot on the map. You can readily see countless videos from around the US that look like something from a decrepit third world country that didn't look anything remotely like that years ago.
If you keep to the main tourist spots & avoid the Tenderloin district you'll be fine. The Ferry Building & all the eateries look to be busy & doing REALLY well. The BART trains ridership numbers are coming back after Covid & the new fare gates will stop the fare evaders. But this is a work in progress with only a few stations having the new gates.
@@brentsummers7377 I can pretty much guarantee you that when this video was made that they didn't have to provided people with maps showing where the highest concentration of human feces and needles are.
These were the Days in San Francisco, When Crime was way LOWER and People were able to walk the Streets, with Hardly being HARASSED or Have to Deal with HOMELESS Problems. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO SAN FRANCISCO’S People up to Today?
In case your wondering about the then and now differences, here is a fun fact. From 1912-1964 every single mayor of San Francisco... was a REPBLICAN. Yep. SF used to be a clean, well run, relatively normal city with beautiful views and lots of family friendly culture.
Hello. I noticed that there are very few videos of Russian cities before 1930 on TH-cam. I understand that there will be no video of Tartaria, European and Asian Russia, because these states existed before 1850. But at least the Russian empire, in theory, could be seen.... But there are few such videos, if any at all.... Strange.
I watched a sci-fi movie where people could go back in a time they choose just to observe . It was very strict not to change anything or let anyone know . That’s how these videos are a view in another time or place we might go . TH-cam is wonderful we could see so much from our computers . When I was young I love to spend hours in big libraries .
Basically for us they were in SF in the 1960’s we are traveling back in time in our thoughts . If transported correct would be little we should do other than view .
notice the culture and that tells you it all. gosh cars were gorgeous then and we didnt really appreciate it. when certain cultures move in. all things good vanish

Another great vintage footage source of SF is, speaking of movies, Bullitt, not even counting the iconic car chase scene.

yes, time to project your fantasy of an SF free of stuff you dont like on some random old footage
Todays degenerative activity and cultural diseases make the 'Hippies' look like a quaint 60s fad ,like hula hoops and Back combed hair

Yes!!
When a hamburger was 25 cents.
It's amazing how the streets are utterly clean and in a mere 60 years it's a complete wasteland of trash and feces now
and the graffiti and modern bums who call themselves homeless.
