Airport

• During the late 1990s, the San

Francisco International Airport became

the sixth busiest commercial airport in

the world, but with the economic

depression of the 2000s and 2001, fell

out of the top 10 busiest in 2003. The

BART connects the airport with the city

as well as an expressway.

• The cable car is all open. Its design is still the same as when they started operating the first cable cars at the end of the last century. At the time, they were a major means of transport in the city. There were over 600 of them operating over 21 routes. With the 1906 earthquake, this transport system was destroyed. Came to be an attempt to eliminate the cable cars, but a popular movement preserved them.
