This panoramic photo was taken by me from the Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland at the end of Piedmont Ave.
Because it is pretty damn big you will have to open it in a new window and then click it to view full size.
Hope you like it!

The San Francisco Ferry Building was completed in 1898. That means it survived the 1906 Earthquake and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. It is a long standing historic landmark in the San Francisco Bay Area. At one point it was the main form of transportation in and out of the Peninsula. This was the days before cars and before the Golden Gate bridge or Bay Bridge had been completed. It had about 50,000 passengers a day! That was the 2nd busiest terminal in the world at the time!
In 2004 the Ferry Building reopened as the well known San Francisco Gourmet Market and home of the Farmers Market.
The Ordway building is the tallest building in Oakland and tallest building in the Bay Area outside of San Francisco. It is 28 floors high and was built in 1970. The Architecture for this building was Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. It will remain the tallest building for a while, other buildings are in the works but have yet to gain approval. There is a group of cry babies complaining about Oakland having tall buildings. Oakland is awesome, let it reach for the sky.
