SAN FRANCISCO LIGHT RAIL
Bayview

The Bayview-Hunters Point area of San Francisco about midway along the new extension.  Construction was well underway at the time of  this 2004 photo, but the overhead infrastructure was yet to be erected.  For several blocks further on, in the heart of Bayview, T-Third runs intermixed with street traffic. 

The racially varied area has a rather gritty feel to it, and has had a scrappy past.  No doubt the expansion of the Muni light rail network will help foster significant change in the years ahead.
