It's like me and NY - after almost 19 years here I have architectural ghosts populating the city, the shadows of buildings/street signs/stores and streetscape articles that are not there anymore. Imagine how much changed in a 100 years! How many architectural specters collected over every NY corner.<br /><br /> And in case of Market St and the earthquake, it's even more dramatic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28014781.post-30020498632124633662010-10-18T10:29:38.019-07:002010-10-18T10:29:38.019-07:00I love San Francisco, and you are right this video...I love San Francisco, and you are right this video is amazing....I had missed it...Thanks for putting it on your blog.....Maryanne xoBeadboard UpCountryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08021853986081835613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28014781.post-34966764409203005292010-10-18T09:53:12.630-07:002010-10-18T09:53:12.630-07:00Lynn, I watched this on 60 Minutes last night and ...Lynn, I watched this on 60 Minutes last night and thought about your beautiful city. I have never been lucky enough to visit, although my sweetheart is from not too far away. Watching it, wondering who, if any of them survived the earthquake. So haunting, yet so wonderful. What an incredible super slueth he was to determine timing, huh? The project of a lifetime for him, I'm sure.<br />--Lee AnnThe French Maidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17446055517987585993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28014781.post-30992664403576104262010-10-18T06:48:40.387-07:002010-10-18T06:48:40.387-07:00Thanks for this.

I saw several people almost get run over during the 11 minutes. What a bustling place. And to think that was only a little over 100 years ago and how much things have changed and yet how little people have. <br /><br />Thanks so much for sharing.Nita Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13833196166679983378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28014781.post-26095954807772681312010-10-18T00:32:58.414-07:002010-10-18T00:32:58.414-07:00Hi Lynn,

I think that you took your life in your hands when you crossed the street !! I love the way the cars and people just weave in and out of each other, going about their daily business....parcels under their arms, women, all dressed up, some with white aprons, others in suits, all typical of life in a big city. My favouriye part are the three young boys who seem to know about the camera. That happens today, doesn't it ?<br />Thanks for showing such a great piece of nostalgia.
