You can walk up to the tower via steps at the end of Filbert St. or take a No. 39-Coit bus from Washington Square. At the summit of this 180-foot Art Deco tower you are treated to a panoramic view of the entire Bay Area, from Mt. Tamalpais in the north to SFO in the south and from the Bay Bridge to the Pacific. The base of the tower features wonderful murals of California workers painted by local artists as a Works Project Administration project when the tower was first built. Walking or taking public transportation is recommended. North Beach Parking Street parking is available but limited in the North Beach area.
Some streets have meters, some are unmetered but with a two hour limit for non-residents.
