When we think of San Francisco, we usually think if tourist attractions like the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and Chinatown. However, amid these once stood the great Sutro Baths. The swimming pool complex once held the title for being the biggest swimming pool establishment in the world.
It held six saltwater pools and one freshwater pool, a museum, a 2,700 seat amphitheater, club rooms, 517 private dressing rooms and a skating rink. It was one of the city’s biggest prides and attracted people from all over the world. However, everything ended in the 1960’s. Amid the deconstruction of the Sutro Baths, an arson burned down the building.
