This bus shelter looks like something out of the Soviet era. But some of those kinds of shelters are cool.
Can you guess where this hexagonal bus stop is located? Are there any uglier in the Bay Area? Don't worry, it looks like help is on the way for this particular location. Yaay.

Just outside Sausalito, headed north out town.
I'm guessing somewhere in Marin too (you can see the Golden Gate Transit sign). Lovely place, but with more than its share of not-exactly-modern infrastructure.
I'm sure the developer thought it would be practical yet modern when the neighborhood was built.
Looks like something in the Northwest.
Yeah, Sausalito. I was there recently. (Good raw food selection available up there at their Real Foods.)
My vote for ugliest bus stop in SF. Across the street from Forest Hill Station. A long hospital pink wall punctuated by a shelter which smells alternately of piss and new paint. I spent many a day there waiting for the 36 Terecita.
Ha! I used to catch the bus there coming home from school. (Bayside/MLK in Sausalito.)
This bus shelter actually has a historical context dating back to Fort Baker. We at Marin County Shelter Preservation Coalition are appealing the deciscion to alter or possibly demolish this historical gem. Please contact Golden Gate Transit and ask them not to alter this Marin County artifact.
Yes, but the historical context is that the soldiers from Fort Baker used it as a restroom.
Yeah north of downtown Sausalito. Right next to a 7-11 if I'm correct. I actually like this bus stop. It's awesome in it's cool Battlestar Galactica porportions. Who needs another glass box with brushed metal anyway? I say keep the bus stop and do something else more useful with the money. Besides it still works well as a bus stop, and in fact probably does a better job sheltering people from the elements then newer less substantial designs. They just don't make 'em like they used to!
And Matty Matt isn't all of San Francisco used as a public restroom? I guess we should rebuild the entire city!
Alter or demolish are two good options. Was the hexagonal Fred Flintstone window an afterthought or part of the original design?
But they wanted to get rid of cable cars back in the late 40's, and that would've been a mistake, huh? Perhaps history will be kind to this bus shelter.
You readers are so clever and learn-ed. In the Street View, you can see Curious George's trainer out for a stroll.
