Yes, we know, this is
San Francisco Cityscape, and the photo at right is of the other capital-C City. But like a lot of San Franciscans, we've got a sense of ... envy? grudging respect? fear and loathing? ... no, we've just got an affinity for New York City. And since we just took a trip back East, why not share the
panoramic wallpaper and
Flickr photos we brought back?
In 2006, Cityscape toured the shining example of Pacific Rim urbanism, Japan. Click
here to view a photoessay featuring Tokyo and Kyoto wallpaper as well as video of Tokyo's Shibuya Crossing and the Shinkansen bullet train.
A San Francisco transit map by Cityscape is featured in the new book
Transit Maps of the World, by Mark Ovenden. Ironically, we recently replaced that map, of the city's rail and rapid transit system once all currently planned projects are built, with
this one — but you can still find the old version
here. Our thanks to Mr. Ovenden for including not just official maps, but work by enthusiasts.
