Description
Ceiling Abstract. San Francisco Cable Car
Fine Art Abstract and Vintage Object Photography by Connie Fox
Indoor color photo of the ceiling of one of the historic cable cars still in use in San Francisco, California, USA. The image has an abstract look and would make a great conversation piece. It is also available in sepia. Cropped to the equivalent of an 8x10, with larger sizes and greeting cards also available.
The San Francisco cable car system is the world's last manually operated cable car system. An icon of San Francisco, California, the cable car system forms part of the intermodal urban transport network operated by the San Francisco Municipal Railway. Of the twenty-three lines established between 1873 and 1890, three remain (one of which combines parts of two earlier lines): two routes from downtown near Union Square to Fisherman's Wharf, and a third route along California Street. While the cable cars are used to a certain extent by commuters, the vast majority of their 7 million annual passengers are tourists. They are among the most significant tourist attractions in the city, along with Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Fisherman's Wharf. The cable cars are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
