Want to go to Alcatraz Island

And now Alcatraz Island it is a place to see the first time I visited Alcatraz and saw what’s there I did not want even to drive fast so I don’t break the law it is something else specially if you never seen inside a prison before that.

Few of well-known criminals, Such as Al Capone, George Machine-Gun Kelly and Alvin Karpis (First Public Enemy#1) and Arthur “Doc” Barker did time on Alcatraz.

Most of the prisoners incarcerated there were not well-known gangster, but prisoners who refused to conform to the rules and considered violent and dangerous or escape risk.

The maximum population capacity of this prison was 336 but this prison never reached its capacity it gets to 260-275 only. There are more about Alcatraz. To track your steps while in San Francisco Click Here

San Francisco is famous about its steepest streets in the country. Lombard Street is the most famous and unique of the vertically endowed roads.

San Francisco’s lombard street

Lombard Street in San Francisco is one of America’s most crook-est streets. The steep, hilly streets were created with sharp curves to switchback down the one way hill past beautiful Victorian mansions.

If not the byzantine curves, easing out this treacherous slope, People could be killed rolling down.

For an idea of how steep this street really is, go two blocks up, to Filbert Street and peer down over the ridge. Lombard is even steeper.

Some of San Francisco’s most expensive real estate sits on Lombard Street.

Lombard street San Francisco

with color, as the many beautiful flowers are in bloom.

But, you know Lombard is not the most crooked street in San Francisco there is one is even more crooked it is Vermont Street between 20th and 22nd street.

People ask why this street is so crooked and the answer is Safety. The naturally steep grade of the street posed a severe safety hazard.

In the 1920’s a property owner in the area suggested the scenic switchbacks to add aesthetic appeal while increasing safety for pedestrians.

It is great photographic area.
