Embarcadero Center

San Francisco f- streetcar, tram or muni trolley traveling down the Embarcadero on a sunny day. Vintage streetcar originally a Pacific Electric car built in 1948 trolley. Tribute livery.

This spot is located on top of 2 Embarcadero Center right next to the Fitness SF. During the day there is a lot of foot traffic so you will likely have people in your shot. The evening is much less crowded and a more ideal time to shoot because of the lights. This shot was on a Friday night, but if you can go Monday - Thursday you will likely get more lights on in the buildings because some people will be working late. You will also notice the unique flooring here. This patter is throughout all the embarcadero centers. It really reminds me of the beach front walking paths of Impanema and Copacobana in Rio de Janero.
