    No, this is not the latest public works project from Alaska 😉

    It is a staircase that appears to descend into the bay from the Embarcadero in San Francisco. I am not quite sure of it’s history.

    Fascinating shot. Are the items out in the water the tops of submerged parts of the structure or just flotsam?

    Randall, yes those are submerged parts of the structure. I am thinking they were part of a place for boats to dock.

    Let me give you another perspective. Let’s say that the under the surface of the water there is a fascinating environment. Those stairs to nowhere would be useful to divers who wanted to enter the water to explore! (I would think of that…)

    My imagination just runs wild…I like to think it’s stairs to the underwater world of mermaids.
