Pier 39 | map |
Opening: 1984 at this location. Thanks to Jack Tillmany for sharing this photo taken by Tom Gray that's in his collection.
This was the 4th and final stop of the show's migration. It began in 1970 atop Ghirardelli Square. There's a bit about it on the page about the Ghirardelli Square Cinema, another venue in that complex. In 1974 it moved about three blocks to location #2 - 333 Jefferson St., a building called Anchorage Square between Jones and Leavenworth. In late 1979 it moved to location #3 - Stage Door Theatre downtown on Mason St. Thanks to Jack for the research.
Another 1984 photo by Tom Gray. Thanks to Jack Tillmany for sharing it.
Closing: The date is unknown.
Status: Pier 39 is alive and well with many shops, restaurants and sea lions.
