As with many concept designs from the Star Trek Universe, San Francisco was a lot more ambitious in production artwork for Star Trek Into Darkness than it ultimately was on screen.

Reflecting 23rd century urban sprawl and bustle, Nathan Schroeder's concept art for San Francisco features numerous elevated walkways and platforms and holographic displays that are pulled straight out of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

JJ Abrams ultimately shot the San Francisco and London sequences for Star Trek Into Darkness in Downtown Los Angeles, augmenting the real streets and locations with CGI by ILM.
