Day 100 — Tank #7

During the 1934–1935 Sutro Baths renovations, the main tank was drastically reduced in size by the construction of a new 15-foot-deep diving tank at its north end in order to create a more suitable diving area. The new tank featured four diving boards and two elevated diving platforms attached to the building’s walls, the highest of which was 45 feet above the water. This new pool was designated Tank #7. Its tall rectangular walls and remnant ladders make it the Baths’ only recognizable pool.

Millionaire Adolph Sutro developed the baths in 1894, constructing a huge glass bathhouse with seven pools of varying temperatures that could accommodate up to 10,000 bathers at once. The three-acre complex also included natural history and art exhibits, and offered concerts and talent shows. Developers demolished the baths in 1964, and in 1966 a fire destroyed the remainder of the site. The city did not pursue plans for high-rise apartments at the site, which has been part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area since 1973.
