WOW!!!! This film is an incredible piece of San Francisco history. Taken only three years prior to the 1906 Earthquake. As a native San Franciscan I found much of it still recognizable. Just when I think NASS has reached the peak of his talent he raises the bar even higher. Thank you again NASS for these marvelous wonderful peeks at history. You're simply the best at what you do.

I was born in 1951, only 48 years from this video. How much things changed in those intervening years. This was just before the Wright Brothers flew their first powered plane. When I was born, we were in the beginnings of the jet age. How our perception of time changes everything.

I've watched this several times.... 0:08 - Starts at Market and Turk heading toward Ferry Building 1:30 - Headed up Market toward Castro still (Valencia would be ahead on Left side) and Castro on Right 1:52 - Jumps to 3rd St (turns into Kearny) and turns right back on to Market(which is the 700 block) 2:36 - Definitely turns right on to Market Street, within viewing of the Ferry Building.(Built in 1898 and still there) 3:09 - Turns left on to Geary, but veers straight onto Kearny. 3:33 - Turns left (probably Stockton St) and heads back to turns right on Market 4:45 - Jump cuts to Union Square from Stockton St. and circles around Union Sq. 5:43 - As camera turns and Union Sq tower comes into view. The large and tall building on Geary and Powell is the current location of St. Francis Hotel 6:17 - The furniture/credit is good store is the current location of Macy's and Louis Vitton. 7:57 - The left corner is SAKS and the right corner where the people are headed is the Union Sq Apple Store. The St. Francis hotel in this video is about 1/2 it's current size. The 4 columns and (indented building) is still there. There's no church in the current location of that spire, so they sold out long ago. St. Mary's (very large famous church is in that direction, but a street or two left and 10+ back. So that's not it, even with lens compression.
Sorry, but NASS description is correct. This STARTS on Market Street at Turk, going NORTHEAST, toward the Ferry Building. The frame of the Flood Building is in view from the beginning.
San Francisco celebrated the dedication of the Dewey Monument in Union Square on May 14, 1903. The event was President Theodore Roosevelt's final official act before leaving the city. This is likely the reason behind the large crowds, the numerous flags, and the wreaths hanging over the streets.
Thanks for this one, NASS. I don't think I've seen this one before. What an astonishing discovery. Shot in 1903, great shots of San Francisco prior to the 1906 quake. Plenty of 45 star US flags hung all over. Before Oklahoma (1907) Arizona and New Mexico (both 1912) Alaska and Hawaii (both 1959) were added. Totally Delightful !
This is amazing!! Imagine filming that and not knowing that 121 years later it would be seen by millions of people in some weird thing called TH-cam. 😊
Even when the colorization is a little off, the quality of the footage is still very good. It's like taking a time machine back to these times. I wish I could travel back to these moments even for just a day. Thank you for sharing these excellent remastered moments.
Theodore Roosevelt Jr. (October 27, 1858 - January 6, 1919) was an American politician and statesman. The 26th President of the United States in 1901-1909 and the 25th Vice President of the United States (March 4 - September 14, 1901) from the Republican Party. Winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1906. In 1912, he ran for election and tried to become president of the United States for the third time, but lost to Democrat Woodrow Wilson. The 33rd Governor of New York (1899-1901). Theodore Roosevelt is a distant relative of the 32nd President of the United States Franklin Roosevelt, and Franklin's wife Eleanor Roosevelt is his niece.
The popular children's toy, the "Teddy Bear," was named after Teddy Roosevelt. This happened after a 1902 hunting trip where he famously refused to shoot a bear that had been tied up for him, considering it unsportsmanlike.
This is amazing. I grew up in the Bay Area and my mom’s family was in Sacramento in 1903. How sad that 3 years later it was destroyed by the earthquake. Thank you for the video!
@@ChristopherGiddey As politely as I can put it, nonsense. The city was decorated for a visit by Teddy Roosevelt. The date checks out, along with all of the patriotic displays of flags, bunting, etc. Not every major event is part of a conspiracy.
Amazing film the amount of people and the size of San Francisco back then was incredible. Seeing photos and films of here in Australia back then there was a massive difference in size even looking at our biggest cities Sydney and Melbourne. Thanks so much for sharing. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is an amazing old film from 121 years ago! As a SF native who was born in 1950, I guessed it was from the time of Teddy Roosevelt's visit. Thanks for this, Nass! 🌺
1900's? Wow! Just a big Wow! Fascinating pictures offering a clear insight into the life of those people who have left our world. Pitty that the opposite way can't be given to them.
No "Rice-a-Roni" signs on the trolley cars. Seriously, I don't recall ever having seen footage of what SF looked like before the earthquake. Great video.
@@peanut422hb Sigh. There's mountains of documentation of when the original buildings were constructed. They LOOK like Old-World buildings because SF was really wealthy (you know, the gold rush, the Comstock mine). The region attracted 1% types who had the $$$ to hire craftsmen to re-create the styles they'd admired in Europe. It's really that straightforward. No conspiracies or alien intervention needed.
That’s the Westin St Francis hotel, which opened a year later in 1904. Its still there and a popular hotel. I think originally it was an apartment building. In the 1970s, President Ford while walking out of the hotel was shot at by a would be assassin who missed.
The biggest takeaway for me was that there were no automobiles in this film (although it apparently was being filmed from one) but in the 1906 film there are many. Such a big change in 3 years.
Actually, there were only a few automobiles in the 1906 film. They kept circling around, as is clearly visible in the film (and led to inaccurate observations of generally wild driving in the day. The Miles Brothers, the filmmakers, probably hired them to provide more motion and "modernity". We explain what you see in that famous 1906 film in our narrated version of it, here: th-cam.com/video/NPMZStAp_2U/w-d-xo.html
@@marketstreetrailway Yes, that happened, but automobiles weren't entirely unknown in SF by 1906 either. Automobile market penetration was amazingly quick. The Model T started in 1909. By 1920 market penetration was complete.. horses were mostly retired. Some horse teams were kept for local delivery drivers, but that was about it.
@@MarinCipollina Yes, that's true. But our point about 1906 stands. Automobiles were a novelty, and were used as a prop of modernity in the 1906 Miles Brothers film. People seeing it for the first time think it's something like a random dash cam, but it was a sophisticated production for the era, distributed in theaters. Other elements, such as the sightseeing streetcar crossing right in front of the camera at Third Street, were almost certainly staged as well.
1:47 On Third Street coming up to Market. You get a glance up Kearney and then right on Market for a block or so then left back to Kearney, and left on Kearney back to Third and Market.
The question is... who built them? and when?. Obviously, not with carts and horses... and the infrastructure? Those trams and rails do not correspond to the "far west" of Hollywood...
@@fernandorubio972It was the major port on the west coast in the last half of the 19th century. So some of these buildings are probably 20 or 30 years old at this point. Major development in the area would have started about 50 years prior to this financed by the California Gold Rush. Bear in mind, this is also 1903. About 30ish years removed from what you would think of as the wild west Although you could make a good argument stretching it back further or bringing it forward depending on what and where you're talking about.
@@fernandorubio972 Really?? Trying to learn history from Hollywood films is like learning dog care by watching a Clifford cartoon. SF was a massively wealthy city thanks to gold and silver mining. That money brought in a lot of rich people who had the bucks to pay for high-end workers. They hired craftsmen to replicate the kinds of elegant architecture they'd seen in Europe. And please stop parroting the "horse and buggy" nonsense spread by that charlatan Jon Levi. Personal transportation was WAY less advanced than construction tech because there were hardly any small, portable gas or electric motors back then. But there were *plenty* of big honking steam motors that powered everything from cranes to excavators to drills. Engineers and builders had a solid background in using that and related tech to put up large, multi-storey structures How do you think they constructed everything from music halls to bridges? The whole TartarSauce narrative comes down to "I don't understand how our ancestors accomplished [XYZ], so the only explanation is some type of gods". That's one *_really_* deep rabbit hole.
Gosto muito desses vídeos de época . Os Estados Unidos sempre foi uma nação desenvolvida , mesmo a tanto tempo , fascina com tamanho desenvolvimento .Curto sempre o canal aqui do Brasil .
Buenas tardes: Es un placer ver los vídeos, de eso, que parece un tiempo muy lejano. Los hombres y su deseo de inmortalizar la historia. veo que los tranvías indican los nombres de calles de origen hispano al igual que la ciudad de San Francisco Castro ST y Valencia St. Todos dejamos huella por donde vamos y pasamos. El color acerca de manera extraña a los hombres en el tiempo, no cree? "solo ha pasado casi un siglo y medio"
One of these times, I fully expect to be watching a video like this of old SF and will find myself staring into a Grandparent or Great-Grandparent's eyes.
I wonder how many of those buildings survived 1906? I wonder how hot it was that particular day. Amazing footage, great restoration as always. Thanks NASS!
Looks like this film was made around Christmas time, doesn't it? Overhead wreaths strung over Market Street adding to the holiday spirit. People standing on the sidewalks, as though they were waiting for the Christmas Parade to begin! What wouldn't we give to be able to walk into any of the stores now, and listen to the conversations between friends greeting one other, or merchants speaking to potential customers??

Was it really an earthquake that destroyed San Francisco in 1906? Can u send me links or information about the disaster of 1906
Can I ask you a question
What is powering the trains and how did they build all the structures in 54 years
Quite the feat
There is actually film from days before the earthquake on this very channel.

4:45 - Jump cuts to Union Square from Stockton St. and circles around Union Sq.
5:43 - As camera turns and Union Sq tower comes into view. The large and tall building on Geary and Powell is the current location of St. Francis Hotel
6:17 - The furniture/credit is good store is the current location of Macy's and Louis Vitton.
