Should an earthquake strike, stay calm. If you are indoors, a good spot to stand is under a door- frame. If driving, stay in your car and park in an open place, not under a bridge or viaduct.

the old shoreline of shallow Yerba Buena Cove, which was filled in during the Gold Rush to create more land. Today it is lined with early 20th century banking temples and modern fabrications of glass and steel. At the end of Market Street stands the newly renovated Ferry Building, which once handled 100,000 commuters a day before the city s bridges were constructed, and is now a bustling meeting spot with caf s and artisan food shops.
