To get to fishermans wharf from Union Square, there are a few things you should know. +The intersection of Powell and Market Streets is EXTREMELY busy due to it having SEVERAL subway and other rail stations at the Powell Street Station, just to the south of the cable car turnaround, under Hallidie Plaza. There is also one of CALIFORNIAS LARGEST SHOPPING MALL at the same intersection along with several other attractions. +There will most likely be a long line of people extending from the front of the GAP building around the turnaround and back up Powell Street past the large banners (you will see when you get there).

+The cable car line you are wanting to ride is also frequented by locals as well as tourists due to the line going through a mainly residential area of San Francisco, which means the cable car MIGHT BE CROWDED with people probably the entire length of the trip. Powell Street Station. Service at this station began on November 5, 1973.[2] The under-construction Central Subway must dive deep underground to pass underneath this station. The Central Subway will include a new station on Stockton Street between Union Square and Market Street to be connected by a tunnel to the existing Powell Street station mezzanine.

The result will be a single integrated underground complex running all the way from Union Square to Market and Fifth Streets. As of December 2013, Powell Street was the busiest station in the BART system.[3] Station layout[edit] Transit connections[edit] Powell/Hyde Cable Car LinePowell/Mason Cable Car Line5 Fulton6 Parnassus8X Bayshore Express8AX Bayshore "A" Express8BX Bayshore "B" Express9 San Bruno9L San Bruno Limited16X Noriega Express21 Hayes27 Bryant30 Stockton31 Balboa45 Union-Stockton71 Haight-Noriega71L Haight-Noriega Limited91 OwlL OwlN Owl AC Transit 800 All Nighter Independent Transit Operator Jitney Bus Valley of the Moon Commute Club Services[edit] Rider Information - Market Street Railway.
