EAT.STAY.SHOP.PLAY. Don’t miss the Saturday farmers market at the Ferry Building. Go early to avoid the crowds and see the chefs shopping. A great place for break- fast, brunch or lunch. Ferry Plaza Farmers Market (at the base of Market Street on the Embarcadero) 415.291.3276 Presidio Picnic Not to be missed! Great food trucks from all over in a beautiful setting. Main Parade Ground at the Presidio Alcatraz I know it sounds like a cliché, but the tour of Alcatraz is wonderful. The view back to the city is unique and great. Book early as it sells out 365 days a year. Pier 33, Alcatraz Landing 415.981.7625 Museums: Take your pick— SFMOMA, Academy of Sciences, de Young, etc. They are all inter- esting, and I especially like looking at the juxtaposition of the de Young and Academy of Sciences across from one another—two of my favorite architects side by side. SFMOMA (San Francisco Museum of Modern Art) 151 3rd Street 415.357.4000 California Academy of Sciences (photo above) 55 Music Concourse Drive 415.379.8000 de Young Museum 50 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive 415.750.3600 SUMMER 2017 57
