SF Russian Hill Francisco Reservoir (1395)

SF Russian Hill Francisco Reservoir (1395)
This large space on Russian Hill is the abandoned Francisco Reservoir. Per various websites the reservoir was built in the mid-1800's and made obsolete in the 1940's. There was a wooden (and rotting) roof over the reservoir until 2013. Discussions regarding what to do with the open space appear to have begun in earnest in the mid-2000's, but still are not resolved.

Interesting! I had no idea this existed and I worked in SF for 8 years. Real estate worth millions, so I suppose there are several factions fighting over it, not least a few developers.
