BAY AREA HEAVY RAIL
Powell St.

This photo is at Powell St. in downtown San Francisco.  Muni, with its array of six light rail lines, is one level above in the subway.  Above that and on the surface, the F-line historic streetcar operates, and  there are trolley buses (and also the diesel kind).  Nearby, the Powell St. cable car terminates.  It can't get too much better than this for the urban transit fan.

Original BART construction began in 1964.  Passenger service under the Bay into San Francisco started in 1973.
