"Adolph Sutro, the self-made millionaire who designed Sutro Heights and later the second Cliff House, developed the amazing Sutro Baths in 1894. With his special interest in natural history and marine studies, he constructed an ocean pool aquarium among the rocks north of the Cliff House. Sutro then expanded his ocean front complex by constructing a massive public bathhouse that covered three acres and boasted impressive engineering and artistic details."
Sutro Tower rises above the morning fog in San Francisco. This local landmark was the tallest structure in SF until it was surpassed by the Salesforce Tower in 2017.

My father Dick Clark took this photo, I am guessing it was the early 1960's. Can anyone comment on when the baths disappeared? I don't know how he got in, but I remember that he used to joke that if you were wearing a white shop jacket, hardhat and carrying a clipboard that you could go just about anywhere.
