	Encyclopedia of San Francisco (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		San Francisco's "Sunset District" is bordered on the north by Lincoln Way, on the west by the Great Highway, on the south by Sloat Boulevard, and on the east by a vague boundary going south from Arguello, Golden Gate Heights, the hill above Kezar Stadium, Golden Gate Heights, and 15th Avenue.
		Sunset streets running east to west were originally named for the letters of the alphabet, starting in the Richmond District with A (later Anza) Street and ending with the Sunset's X (later changed to Yorba-for Y) Street.
		Building in the Sunset began primarily in the eastern section, which was more accessible from the city center, and the outer Sunset, which people could reach from the south (and also provided "beachfront homes.") The Central Ocean Toll Road appears on early maps.

	Canal Tunnels of London
		Islington Tunnel was opened in 1820 along with the completion of the canal, a procession of boats passing through with a band playing, to be met by a salute of cannon fire as they emerged at the eastern end.
		Tunnels were built by the process of sinking shafts at intervals to the required depth, and then lowering men and equipment down to dig, and, it was hoped, meet.
		The tunnel was at first operated by "legging", whereby men lying on their backs on planks aboard the boat walked the vessel through against the side walls.

	San Francisco Neighborhoods: Outer Sunset and West Portal
		The Outer Sunset's main retail drag is on Irving Street, between 19th and 27th avenues, while the Parkside's is along Taraval Street, roughly between 15th and 30th avenues, continuing with lower density practically to Ocean Beach.
		Although Sunset is heavily trafficked, it's also heavy with trees and grass that separate nonmotorized travelers from the cars, making it a great walking, biking or jogging route.
		Sunset Boulevard: This classic divided boulevard is planted on both sides with trees and grass; it's a good north-south biking or jogging route and an ideal access route for Golden Gate Park or Lake Merced (between Lincoln Boulevard and Lake Merced Boulevard).

	The Rail Freight Tunnel (Gotham Gazette. June, 2004)
		The single tunnel would cost $4 billion versus $7 billion for a double tunnel and would have lesser adverse environmental and neighborhood impacts.
		A single tunnel would reduce truck travel by three percent in the region while a double tunnel would produce a 4.5 percent reduction.
		While a cross harbor tunnel would have major impacts on the volume of commodity truck trips, overall effects on traffic congestion would be extremely modest.

		Tunnel building is a longstanding tradition in San Francisco, but since the results are largely invisible most people don’t know that as they walk or drive down a street they may be passing over a major hole in the ground.
		San Francisco’s first major tunnel was the 1,000-foot-long Stockton Tunnel, opened in 1914 to carry four lanes of cars and buses under the edge of Nob Hill from the main business district to Chinatown and North Beach.
		The granddaddy of all Bay Area tunnels was built in 1936 during the construction of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge.

		On the day when we went for our drive, we actually got there at sunset and the light conditions were wrong for photographing it from the appropriate angle, but I returned on another day at a different time and was able to capture the "parachute" look.
		Twin 480m tunnels have been made through the hills, and the roads are being built at the moment to carry the traffic to them, and away from the current series of switchbacks, some of which have 25kph advisory speeds.
		The material brought out of the tunnels is being used to build up the road nearer to Adelaide so that the eventual gradient of the road will be much more constant than it is at present.

		Despite the money that has been poured into projects on the Sunset, those who keep their fingers on the pulse of the roads say growth is killing the highway.
		Early projections have a tunnel widening project costing somewhere in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and even then, "there's no way you have enough money or enough will power among the populace to actually grow your way out of congestion," says Thompson.
		Second of all, the bottleneck is not at the tunnel, the bottleneck is at Sylvan Hill all the way to 217," says John Charles, from the Cascade Policy Institute.

	The Treasure Island Experiment: Stories
		San francisco's existing trains were saved by the city's hills: the n-judah route to ocean beach via the northern sunset district was spared because its narrow sunset tunnel (built under the haight) would be of limited use to buses or cars.
		The k-ingleside and m-oceanview routes to the city's south central neighborhoods and the l-taraval route to the zoo via the southern sunset district were all similarly spared because the long twin peaks tunnel from castro to west portal was too long and not vented for gas-burning vehicles.
		In some cases, their tunnels were taken by cars, such as the stockton tunnel between chinatown and union square.

		If you find that each tunnel in a multitunnel config may be created individually, but all may not be created at once, you may have encountered an old (1.6) bug.
		Note: When testing a tunnel that protects a multi-node subnet, you may wish to try several subnet nodes as ping targets, in case one node is routing incorrectly.
		You can explicitly create an eroute to force such packets through the tunnel, or you can create additional tunnels as described in our configuration document, but those may be unnecessary complications in your situation.

		As in the past, Sunset Park's unique assets - its close proximity to Manhattan, a huge regional population, a natural deep-water harbor, its infrastructure, its transportation linkages, and its hardworking local employment base continue to provide the foundation for future prosperity.
		Ignored and neglected for many years, these assets are now receiving the attention they deserve as Sunset Park is the target community for three major development projects proposed for the region: reconstruction of the Gowanus Expressway, a new port, and a rail freight tunnel connecting Sunset Park to either Staten Island or New Jersey.
		New York City also is in the process of contracting for a twoyear study of the proposed rail freight tunnel.
