The Cliff House with Seal Rock in the background is seen in San Francisco, April 10, 2002. The Cliff House, a roadside restaurant that has long been one of the West Coast s top tourist attractions, is about to get a major and long-needed facelift. Resolving a decade-long battle between architects, historic preservationists, federal bureaucrats and neighborhood groups, the blueprints have been finalized and construction begins this September.Associated Press/Eric Risberg
Regarding “Like losing Fisherman’s Wharf’ S.F. diners bemoan loss of Cliff House, though not its food” (Dec. 14): I was in tears at the news that the Cliff House restaurant is closing. But I was furious at the National Park Service claims that a restaurant could not be useful in that location. The Cliff House has been serving fine food for 157 years.
The year is drawing to a close, memorable for its unrelenting spotlight on coronavirus. Reflecting on the past 12 months, imagine what you would do if you were in a position of great power and influence. Two scenarios are offered, each with different underlying goals.
