San Francisco was one of the original bitmap typefaces for the Apple Macintosh computer released in 1984. It was designed by Susan Kare to mimic the ransom note effect and was used in early Mac software demos and Apple company fliers. An official TrueType version was never made, and San Francisco was rendered obsolete with the arrival of System 7.
Saint Francis, by Hank Gillette, is a free TrueType font of similar design sometimes used as a surrogate on non-Apple systems.
San Francisco is an album by jazz vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson and saxophonist Harold Land, released on the Blue Note label in 1971. The album features a shift away from the usual hard bop-post-bop style pursued previously by Hutcherson and Land, and shifts towards jazz fusion. Some CD reissues features a different track listing and add a version of "A Night in Barcelona" remixed by Tokyo Ghetto Pussy.
Phillips reported writing the song in about 20 minutes.
The song, which tells the listeners, "If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair", is credited with bringing thousands of young people to San Francisco, California, during the late 1960s.
The opening lyrics are as follows:
"San Francisco, open your Golden Gate
You'll let nobody wait outside your door
San Francisco, here is your wanderin' one
Saying I'll wander no more. "
The song is now a popular sentimental sing-along at public events such as the city's annual earthquake commemoration. It is one of two official city songs, along with "I Left My Heart in San Francisco."
Judy Garland included the song to her concert repertoire, with a new introduction that starts, "I never will forget Jeanette MacDonald; just to think of her it gives my heart a pang. I never will forget, how that brave Jeanette, just stood there in the ruins and sang. A-a-a-and sang..." She opened a late 1950s concert at the Cow Palace with her version. It was so well and tumultuously received that she sang it again as an encore. In her later career, her interpretation grew darker. She parodies Jeanette's happy performance gradually becoming more serious, climaxing at, "but the only bridge that's a real gone bridge is the bridge across the bay," often sung with desperation near the point of collapse.
San Francisco is a neo-grotesquesans-seriftypeface made by Apple Inc. It was first released to developers on November 18, 2014. It was used first as the system typeface of the Apple Watch, and later replaced Helvetica Neue as the system typeface of OS X and iOS with OS X El Capitan and iOS 9. It is also the system typeface of tvOS, starting with the 4th generation Apple TV. It is the first new typeface designed at Apple in nearly 20 years.
Variants
The San Francisco typeface has two variants: "SF" for OS X, iOS, and tvOS; and "SF Compact" for watchOS. The main difference is that the sides of letters with round shapes, such as o, e, and s, are round in SF, whereas they are flat in SF Compact. The flat sides allow the letters to have more space between them, thereby making the text more legible at small sizes, which is particularly important for the Apple Watch. Both SF and SF Compact each have two optical sizes: "display" for large and "text" for small text. Compared to display, the letters in text have larger apertures and more generous letter-spacing. The operating system automatically chooses the display optical size for sizes of at least 20 points, and text otherwise.
All 96 weekday trains and all 32 (Saturday) and 28 (Sunday) trains stop there. The station is in the Mission Bay/China Basin area, bordered on the north by Townsend Street, east by 3rd Street, west by 4th Street and south by King Street. It opened on June 21, 1975, replacing a station built in 1914 at 3rd and Townsend, one block away.
The Caltrain Downtown Extension project to the rebuilt Transbay Terminal includes the construction of an underground 4th and King station. The underground station will be next to the current station on the Townsend side. Several platforms on the current station will be retained as the terminal for non-electric trains, such as trains to Union City across Dumbarton Rail Bridge and trains to Gilroy.

It is one of the best known hymns of the hippie movement.
McKenzie grew up in North Carolina and Virginia, where she befriended one of her mother's friends, "Papa" John Phillips. In the mid-1950s, he sang for a short time with Tim Rose in high school, within a group called The Singing Strings, and later with Phillips, Mike Boran, and Bill Cleary, forming a doo-wop-style band called The Abstracts. In New York, the Abstracts renamed themselves The Smoothies and recorded two singles for Decca Records, produced by Milt Gabler (producer of Bill Halley's records).
In 1961, Phillips and McKenzie met Dick Weissman and formed The Journeymen, and they recorded three albums for Capitol Records. Before The Journeymen disintegrated in 1964, they both talked about forming a new group. Mckenzie preferred to continue alone and John would contact Denny Doherty, Cass Elliot and Michelle Phillips, his second wife. The group soon immigrated to California. Two years later, Scott traveled to New York and signed for Lou Adler's label (Ode Records). Phillips wrote and produced San Francisco for Scott and it was released in 1967. Phillips played guitar during the recording and Michelle rang the bells. Immediately the song became a success and a kind of hippie anthem, managing to position itself on the charts around the world, within the Top 10. It was a very popular song around the world, it achieved presence during the Summer of Love, in San Francisco.
Scott had another minor hit called Like An Old, also produced and written by John Phillips. His first album, The voice of Scott McKenzie, was followed by another called Stained glass Morning. He stopped recording in the early seventies, settling in Joshua Tree (California) and Virginia Beach.
In 1986, he began performing again by presenting a remake of The Mamas & the Papas of the hit Kokomo, a song co-written with The Beach Boys. For a time he replaced Denny Doherty in the John Phillips band. In 1998 he left the group and began to reside permanently in Los Angeles, where he passed away in August 2012 from Guillain-Barre syndrome, a disease that affects the nervous system and that he had been diagnosed in 2010.
