SF Urban Ore explores San Francisco’s hidden history along popular MUNI routes. Here’s how to get the app for your phone or tablet (currently only available on iOS):

- Open the app, and select San Francisco Urban Ore: MUNI from the menu.
- Start exploring! You’ll visit 15 virtual “history stops” along the N Judah, from Ocean Beach to the Bay—without leaving the streetcar. [1]
