What's open and closed at the San Francisco Ferry Building

All of the Comings and Goings at the Ferry Building

In fact, the Ferry Building has remained open throughout the shelter in place. The city’s famous landmark holds a unique position for a few different reasons. The doors never closed to the interior of the building because unlike local malls and shopping centers that were forced to shutter, the Ferry Building is both a transit center and a dining hub, giving those essential food businesses the option of staying open for takeout and delivery. Additionally, it boasts a big outdoor space, with plenty of room for outdoor markets and outdoor seating, not to mention a beautiful (if brisk) view of the bay.
