I visited Sf a few times, it was interesting, the best time I ever had was crossing the Golden Gate Bridge and unexpectingly seeing a practice by the Blue Angels. Traffic was light and I just stop my car along with hundreds of others and watched them buzz the bridge. I've been to Alcatraz, so go ahead tear it down. I don't care if I ever see SF again, been there done that. The land of fruits and nuts.

If their tourist industry tanks because of it, well so what? As long as I don't have to pay for it. If the residents of SF want to pay to tear down Alcatraz, then I say more power to them.

I seem to remember the ferry ride being around $20 per person, and you frequently need to reserve a spot, most of the ferries go over full. How many people do you suppose are going to pay the ferry fee plus whatever gate fee they have, to see a medicine wheel? I find it hard to believe that they will get more than a handful of votes for this one. All over California local governments are complaining of tax shortfalls. Alcatraz is run by the Federal government, the city actually makes money from the tourist draw.Compare this to pouring millions into building a facility that no one will use. Typical New Age thinking; build something and make everyone else pay for it. I took my family out to Alcatraz 5 or 6 years ago.

Contrary to several newspaper reports, the City Council vote was 6-3 not 8-1. I was one of the NO votes. I expect a correction to appear soon. Kriss W" I now know that Kriss and Gordon and one other council member are patriots. Why can not the media get anything correct any more? I think Iowahawk is right about how dangerous they really are.
