Friday What The… Double Deck Golden Gate Bridge?
First of all, I can't tell which way most of those 1960s cars are traveling. One thing I do know: that bus and everyone on it are screwed. And wow, that sure is a lush and green post-Summer of Love San Francisco awaiting the hep cats that are fortunate to be headed the right direction.

UPDATE: Commenter troymccluresf points out that the film, Bicentennial Man, with Robin Williams, also imagined a double-decker GG Bridge (with bonus - Tiburon as a looming metropolis!):
There's also a couple of quick shots of it in this trailer (it's at 1:26 and 1:59 in case you can't stomach the whole thing):
