Unfinished History
Seals Stadium anchored the block between Bryant and Potrero on 16th St. for about 30 years, and was home to the SF Giants in 1958 and 1959 when they first arrived in San Francisco. When Candlestick Park opened in 1960, Seals Stadium was destroyed, and replaced by a White Front department store, which in turn made way for an Auto Center and Safeway, and is now known as the Potrero Center, a new mall opened at the end of 1996.
