Filbert Steps to Coit Tower

Telegraph Hill · stairway sequence · Free

I assign this walk to anyone who asks me how to understand San Francisco's relationship to topography. You climb through five architectural eras in fifteen minutes.

The Filbert Street staircase is the city's best architectural promenade. The cottages along it are some of the oldest wood structures in San Francisco.
