Only a few houses still stand in the Drawbridge Ghost Town on Station Island near Alviso, Calif., after decades of marsh sinking, floods, and fires damaged the once booming 80-acre town. Today, Drawbridge can be seen at a distance from the Don Edwards Wildlife Refuge trails, which line the San Francisco Bay salt evaporation ponds. Photo by Stan Olszewski/SOSKIphoto.
