There was a time when the singing
cables of the Cable Cars along California Street ended
in the basement of the Cable Car Court.
An enormous wheel threaded the cable to a slot that returned
it down California Street from whence it had come. The
cable cars traversed Nob Hill, and passed through Chinatown
to the financial district, ending up a block from the
Ferry Building, where all the ferries landed from all
over San Francisco Bay.
The history of the singing cable still lives in the memories
of the walls of the subterranean Cable Car Court vaults.There
