Tank Hill Might be the Best Spot in San Francisco to watch Fireworks on July 4th!
July 3rd, 2008 by max
This July 4th, I might be headed out to Tank Hill, located somewhat next to Twin Peaks. I doubt I can see Fireworks as well than being in downtown but it sure beats the traffic and parking tickets.
My new favorite high point in San Francisco is called Tank Hill, because it was once the location of a huge municipal water tank. Today it’s a protected park with a gorgeous day and night panoramic view from the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands all the way across the city and down to the East Bay. I heard about Tank Hill from a fantastic weekly newsletter called Weekend Sherpa, which reveals secret spots around the Bay Area for all kinds of outdoor activities. (Kay Merrill, a family travel planner who lives up on Larkspur, put me on to Weekend Sherpa.)
