The tallest skyscraper in San Francisco from 1969 to 2017 - 260 m and 48 floors.

The brick structure for the Lime Point Lighthouse was built in 1883 as a fog-bell signaling station. It was eventually fitted with coal powered 12-inch steam whistles. During operation, the facility included the fog signal building, a coal shed, water tank, and a two-story keeper's quarters. The keepers building later upgraded to include a third floor. Only the fog signal building is left today. The shadows are made by the Golden Gate bridge.

The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge in Art decó design, spanning the Golden Gate, the one-mile-wide strait connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The structure links the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County, carrying both U.S. Route 101 and California State Route 1 across the strait. The bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco and California. It was initially designed by engineer Joseph Strauss in 1917. It has been declared one of the Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers. total length 2737.1 m longest span 1280.2 m height 227.4 m clearance below at hight tide 67.1 m en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Gate_Bridge scanned slide, Minolta X700
