Walking Downtown San Francisco, CA | Union Square, Tenderloin, Market Street
Рет қаралды 243,865
Жыл бұрынSan Francisco, located on the western coast of the United States, is a vibrant and culturally rich city that captivates visitors with its unique charm and stunning natural beauty.
The city is renowned for its iconic landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, a magnificent suspension bridge that spans the entrance to the San Francisco Bay. The bridge's bright orange-red color and graceful design have made it an internationally recognized symbol.
In this video, I walk through the popular Union Square area before visiting the Tenderloin District, and then making my way to Market Street to the San Francisco Ferry Building.

@@daviddomingo7768Calling bull on that story. Fisherman's wharf neighborhood is expensive, touristy w high pedestrian traffic, therefore regularly patrolled. Not much of a homeless concentration in that part of the city. Unless you live in the city and spend significant amount of time there, very low odds of seeing/stepping in poop, esp. outside the homeless concentration neighborhoods (i.e. Tenderloin, SoMo, etc.). Maybe you could name the street you parked near Fisherman's Wharf so we can check it out on Google Streetview to see just how bad it looks.

Ghost towns are VERY common in many American cities. Check out St.Louis, Memphis and a bunch of cities in the south and Midwest. So many empty streets.

I've been to S.F. many times. Back in 2002/03 I was stayin in the then Metropole Hotel on Turk Nr Mason. This guy John Bravard who was stayin in the Dalt Hotel on Turk comes out & opens up with a .45 cos he's pissed at life. Four innocent souls dead & one injured lying in the street ! Could never shrug that off & will never go back to that place. California dreamin - California Screamin !

For a beautiful day at noon, I’ve never seen so little pedestrian or vehicular traffic in SF. On the sidewalks in the areas around Union Square it used to be packed with people every day. At this time of the day, no one passing through the doors of Macy’s, empty chairs and tables in the park, no one at the bike rentals. This is a retail and economic cancer/disaster spreading through this city. I saw another video done in the past week walking up Powell St. From Market, and every store and hotel closed.

This is nonsense. SF did get pretty busy before the pandemic but it wasn't a constant carnival. This looks pretty normal for an average weekend walk in SF. You people keep imagining stuff. Meanwhile, tourism in SF is back to 80% of pre-pandemic levels. Reality does not agree with your biases.

@@michaelotruba1308 Lol, sure. All of a sudden the city is different that it has always been because you right wingers want it to be. And no evidence to the contrary can prove you wrong because everything it based on "feels" and "vibes." What does the 80% hotel occupancy compared to pre-pandemic tell you? What about the fact that it was only 50% last year and 30% in 2021? Does that speak for itself as well?

We have police in SF. But 80% (of "sworn-in" officers) are out of towners who commute for a paycheck with little investment in trying to understand anybody who lives here. The same can be said for many government employees here, actually. And the street police tend to just drive around and honk at people, which doesn't teach them anything, and we all have to listen to it throughout the day and night, and try to tune that and everything else out the best we can, leading to them and other "services" honking and blasting their sirens even more, because that's all they know how to do. Literally a fire truck siren right now. Edit: followed by an ambulance.

You can't see everything in the video. But if you look closely, you can see the streets are more filthy than you might think from a distance. Also, the bus stops and graffiti that is etched in the glass or plastic. That said, I would agree that it doesn't look as bad as portrayed in the media. But there is a reason why Nordstroms and a bunch of other businesses are leaving. SF even warned people of the massive car break-ins that they are experiencing. The truth is in the middle.

All the right winger TV film crews go to the same neighborhood to film "the terrible decline of once great San Francisco." That neighborhood has been rough pretty much since it's inception though. It's like going to Hunts Point in the Bronx and expecting not to be shot. But they keep doing it. It's kind of hilarious. As long as you stay away from the Tenderloin you'll have a great time in SF. A friend of mine calls it the SF donut. You can go anywhere in the city, but stay away from the donut hole, i.e. the Tenderloin.
