oh that's a shame - it was doing really well until the part around 45 minutes in - about the chinese and 'white' war going on - you forgot the part where the chinese were talking all the jobs of the people already there - sort of like the illegals are taking jobs now from AMERICANS ALREADY HERE. Then you say it was one sided. that is also not true. the hostility had been growing and there were alot of theft and even rape and murder committed by the chinese who were dumped here and left to fend for themselves KIND OF EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING IN A DEMOCRAT RUN SAN FRANCISCO and california - usa etc Libertarian comments were hilarious - what a buffooon
The year 1999 was the year I went to Sanfrancisco. I was to have one of the most exciting time of my life which I would miss for the rest of my life. Now living in my home country, South Korea, I watch u tube videos showing Sanfrancisco like this, once in a while, hoping to get a chance to visit there sometime soon. It being such a beautiful city, I hear it is having hard time dealing with economic difficulties and some social problems like illegal drugs prevalent throughout the city... I hope things will get better...
I am a descendant of a member of the party that founded San Francisco. There is an annual ceremony on founding day at the Presidio where we lay flowers honoring our descendants.
I moved to SF after college (late 1980s). It was the best decision I ever made. SF was just becoming a hub for tech companies. My life is quite boring now. I left my heart there... RIP TB Thank god for cams online.❣
Great documentary. Can’t believe it’s been twenty five years since it was originally aired. San Francisco is my second home town. Born and raised in New York City. But I love SF. Everything about it. Especially its history. Unfortunately the city is going through yet another test. Poor governance and lack of leadership is having a negative impact on the city. The ‘89 earthquake such an incredible event. But we got through it. Everyone pulled together and got our beloved city back on track. What is happening now is just incredibly sad. But it’s happening in every city in the United States. But when this happens to an absolutely beautiful place like SF it’s just awful. Stop being soft on crime and take care of our city.
The opera house interior shown at 11:19 is not the Adelphi Opera House. It is Wade's Opera House. later known as the Grand Opera House, which was built in the late 1800's.
My Great Great Grandfather and his brothers were among the "Forty-niners" who arrived by ship to San Francisco in 1849 to do general store business both in San Francisco and in Sacramento. Stayed in both places through 1850 with one brother staying in Mendocino and Sacramento until about 1870 doing lumber and general store business. Do not know if any found much gold or even tried but I bet they did. Big flooding in 1850 and one brother died of maybe Cholera that they described as Dysentery in 1850 so they mostly went back East.
The news about the gold rush reached the other side of the Pacific Ocean. To This day, Sam Francisco is still called the Old Mt of Gold in Chinese. The reason it's called the old is to distinguish it from the new Mt of Gold which is in Melbourne, Australia.
This is awesome. So much San Francisco history I was unaware of. Loved the bit about the Sydney Ducks. More people need to watch this production. Thanks for a great vid. 🙏

MARKET STREET,CHINA TOWN. IT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CITY IN THE WORLD. I HOPE THINGS WILL GET BETTER THERE.🙏IT'S MY HOME AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE MY HOME.LEFT MY HEART AND SOUL IN S.F. HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN👍
Mentioned in the first sentence. Vanquished. By Colonialism and disease. Natives made no contribution to "San Francisco, the City". This ain't Seattle. San Francisco was a bunch of sand dunes. The natives didn't develop it. There were no pyramids like St Louis. There was no great cities here, again like St Louis that had over 100,000 people living there. Can't see what the Natives contributed to San Francisco. In fact, Chinese did a lot more. You should talk about the Chinese contribution. In fact, all natives came originally from China. Wake up. 😅 Any other questions?
This is a good documentary, but not great. It zigz zagz between specific aspects and points in time. It needed better structure and writing. New York, a Documentary Film was an epic masterpiece, with David Ogden Stiers narrating. That is the gold standard of documentaries to follow.
This one was done by a local newstation. The other by Ken Burns' brother Ric, with massive funding from PBS sponsors. Sure, the NY one is better. But THIS is THE one to watch on SF.
So much struggle efforts blood sweat and still world having come so far do not want to change the most important aspect that of monetary financial systems which needs urgently to be done so everybody can have largesse of mint print to ease up lives legitimately and profitable for all big small bussinesses and left out average minimum wages can afford to have something more rather then paycheck to paycheck that also comes with cuts all of it can be streamlined by new systems and monitored also
Just because they excluded details like the original founder's name doesn't necessarily mean the whole video is a lie. Could you elaborate on the lies presented in this video? I would genuinely like to know what they got wrong. Also, if you don't know what KRON4 is, that tells me you're not from SF. Perhaps you are just a history buff of random cities? 😋
Anza arrived in Monterey on March 10, 1776. Then Anza set out to explore the San Francisco peninsula. Together with Fr. Font, he selected a place for a new presidio and mission in what is today San Francisco. Anza returned to Sonora in fall of 1776 He didn't "found" the city. He only was there a very short time, a few weeks to select the site of the mission (to convert Natives to his Catholicism). Then he went back to Sonora. That's it. Essentially he was a Mexican on vacation here. So what. 😅

Your ancestors would be amused that your honor your descendants. 😆
I love history documentaries from the 90s and earlier, no political backing and no 9/11
Also no netflix style drone shots and crying people to fill up half of the episode's length..
Agreed. Just pure raw history
Bean from San francisco, it's really cool hearing all of these people's last names and realizing how many areas and streets are named after them
I moved to SF after college (late 1980s). It was the best decision I ever made. SF was just becoming a hub for tech companies. My life is quite boring now. I left my heart there... RIP TB

How many indigenous and Mexicans did they kill?

Dr Kevin Starr was my professor! RIP!
Peter Coyote could narrate a documentary about farts and make it sound good
I’d watch that documentary
I'd love a documentary about farts no matter who narrates it 😃
I love San Francisco
Im hearing all of these names of streets that I've traveled on for years.....its cool knowing who they were named after. Thanks
I would like to see how they dealt with bears and other wild life

Very good, full of facts, beautifully presented thank you.
9:36 proudest moment of San Francisco history
What does "open field day" mean?
The ones who really made money off of gold were the ones who were selling the supplies not the actual miners!
That is always the case. Mining the miners is a 19th Century phrase.

Never realized how similar Peter Coyote and Tom hanks's voices are! I thought this was Tom Hanks for the first 20 minutes😂
Never realize Ralston in Belmont was named after any of the founding people of the area
I met Peter back in the Mime troupe days. Shields and Yarnell who?
First resident? what about the native american Olone people who lived there??

Wake up. 😅
Any other questions?
they don't talk about that the first settlers stole it from them probably murdered them!
They mentioned them in 1:30 minutes in.
The natives live in the area but did not “Found” San Francisco

Pov: u have to watch this for homework
Cuz look like Sean hannity big little brother
You didn't spend much time about stealing this land from the natives.
This a huge lie. Who did this?
You don't even name the founder of the city, Juan Bautista de Anza.
Fake news, a shame.
Just because they excluded details like the original founder's name doesn't necessarily mean the whole video is a lie. Could you elaborate on the lies presented in this video? I would genuinely like to know what they got wrong.
Also, if you don't know what KRON4 is, that tells me you're not from SF. Perhaps you are just a history buff of random cities? 😋
Anza arrived in Monterey on March 10, 1776. Then Anza set out to explore the San Francisco peninsula. Together with Fr. Font, he selected a place for a new presidio and mission in what is today San Francisco.
Anza returned to Sonora in fall of 1776
He didn't "found" the city. He only was there a very short time, a few weeks to select the site of the mission (to convert Natives to his Catholicism). Then he went back to Sonora. That's it.
Essentially he was a Mexican on vacation here. So what. 😅
😂Haha You were wrong completely Anza didn't discover anything 🎉 like all raza of the time he was lazy that's why they lost the war!!!
@@jonmacdonald5345sure gold miners built a city 100 miles from the mines🤔that makes sense
@@hexlemorte5201 better than being a fat lazy broke Mexican of those time's
