1954rif. List38123San Francisco California: United Press Photo 1954. Photograph measuring 8 ⅗ x 4 ½ inches. With typed caption date stamp manuscript and later sticker verso. Near Fine. An artist's rendering of a proposed monorail terminal in San Francisco. The caption on the verso states that "Plans for the 117-car line $96000000 monorail system have been submitted to City Hall." This was likely the proposal by the Monorail Engineering & Construction Corp. headed by George D. Roberts which submitted a lengthy report on the possibilities of monorail transit to the Mayor Elmer Robinson's office in June 1954.1 At the time what public transit in the Bay Area would look like was an open question; the California legislature created the Bay Area Rapid Transit Commission in 1951 to study the issue. Though BART's designers wanted the brand-new system to take advantage of new developments in rail technology they did not settle on monorail which remained more of a novelty and was never widely adopted in the US. 1 Monorail Engineering & Construction Corp.
