Golden Gate Park #4

The ruins of the Sutro Baths, a set of seven glassed-in swimming pools built in 1898 and destroyed in 1966. The sprawling building could accommodate ten thousand people at once. Incline Press has some old photos (here and here) of how it used to look. The SF museum has an article from 1912.
