I remember the Emporium days when there was Santa's North Pole and I believe a whole xmas train set put out for all to see. I think the rooftop amusement park was up during xmas if not all year round :)
my dad's mom would take him and his siblings every year to go do the amusement park thing on top of the emporium, and we have this cute picture of my dad talking to santa as a little boy. then she would take my brothers to do the same thing when they were little.
my moms dad.... was around during the 1906 earthquake. i think he was like 14 or something? and has a complete account of it in a journal.
we have a book by Herb Cain called the Cable car and the dragon.
you should just sit down with my parents sometime. they are also SF knowledgeable. and i always love learning new things about my city. even if i live in the suburbs of it. ;)
