San Francisco 1900s in color [60fps,Remastered] w/sound design added

I colorized , restored and sound design for this Rare video of San Francisco 1900s,

00:05 - 01:46 the Native Son's Monument visible at the intersection of Turk and Mason streets, beyond which lies the unfinished Flood Building and, to the far right, the Call Building tower. United Railroad cable cars move along Market Street, with the tall building on the right likely being the "Castle" of the Knights of Pythias. A street sweeper is then seen performing a task in the final days of horse power. Further along, a wall advertisement for J. Heller and Co. Boots and Shoes is visible on the left, and to the far right is the Emporium department store. The unfinished masonry work on the Flood Building reappears at the intersection of Powell and Eddy streets on the left. The driver veers around a buggy towards the awning of the Emporium and approaches the intersection of Stockton, Ellis, and Fourth Streets. The car passes to the right of a Valencia Street cable car en route from the Mission District to the Ferry Building, followed by an electric streetcar crossing from Fourth Street to Ellis Street in front of the Phelan Building on the left. The camera then approaches the back of a Castro Street cable car, with the blank rear walls of the Mutual Savings Bank at the corner of Geary and Kearny Streets visible on the left. The sign at the upper right advertises Sanborn and Vail Wholesalers.

01:46 - 04:42 Heading northwest up Third Street from Mission Street, the Winchester Hotel is at near left and the Call Building is beyond, at the left corner. The Mutual Savings Bank is across Market Street, at the center, and the blank wall of the Hearst Building is at the right, opposite the Call Building. The first of many street sweepers is seen, as a policeman patrols the crowd at right. The view is across into Kearny Street as the automobile approaches Market Street. Swinging right into Market Street, the stone-faced Chronicle Building is visible, with Lotta's Fountain at right, the 1875 gift of California actress Lotta Crabtree. Passing behind a cable car, the line ran from 20th Street, near Fairmount Hill, north on Castro Street to Market Street, then down Market to the Ferry Building. The opulent Palace Hotel is at the center. Approaching the intersection of Montgomery, Post, and New Montgomery streets, the Crocker Building and Union Trust Building (white base) are at left; the Grand Hotel and the Palace Hotel are at right. The Union Trust Building is at left; the Hobart Building adjacent to it at right. Working through the crowd, the automobile enters Montgomery Street, the "Wall Street West" of later years. A scaffold at right indicates a building under construction. After a double cut in the continuity of the film, the driver has made the first left turn from Montgomery Street and is halfway up Sutter Street. A street clock at right reads 2h14. Several businesses set up street clocks for the convenience of patrons. The view is west up Sutter Street to a horsecar stopped behind the crowd. Turning left (south) into Kearny Street (note the stray dog), the automobile heads across Post Street - a very rough ride. A water wagon is at left, and several street sweepers are in the intersection. Looking across Market Street, the camera comes full circle - the Hearst Building (left), the Winchester Hotel (center), and the Call Building (right) come into view again. Turning right (southwest) into Market Street, the automobile passes a flag-decked cable car and the decorated portal of the Call Building. A small traffic jam is encountered. Men, perhaps reporters, climb into a wagon. The Phelan Building at Market and O'Farrell (and Grant) streets is at right center.

04:42 - 08:59 Panorama, Union Square
