San Francisco, CA: SP Bayshore Roundhouse

(Satellite, 117 photos)
Turntable: (Satellite, I dropped a pin on the center of the turntable because it is now easy to do so. To locate the turntable after the land is redeveloped will probably be harder.)

Bruce Johnson posted
Greg David: And…. Not abandoned. Out of service and very much still private property. Waiting for redevelopment.

Dave Kuntz Drone Photos posted four photos with the comment: "In the shadow of what was once San Francisco's Candlestick Park, another iconic piece of California infrastructure exists:  Southern Pacific's Bayshore Roundhouse, which today is nothing but a decaying ghost of a long-gone steam era."

Dave Kuntz Drone Photos posted five photos with the comment: "I almost forgot about the detail shots I took of the SP Bayshore Roundhouse in San Francisco CA this month.  We can see the stalls under the roof that burned in a 2001 arson fire, the section of the roundhouse that remains relatively intact, the now empty turntable pit, and a set of tracks that were never undercover."
Frank Palermo: The entire site is about to be redeveloped into moew low income housing.
[I wonder how well they will clean up the land before they build on it.]
Dave Kuntz Drone Photos shared with the comment: "Bayshore Roundhouse closer view."

Nice work, here is a photo from the late 1950's of the area.
