Supply ships arrived in San Francisco with goods to supply the needs of the growing population. When hundreds of ships were abandoned after their crews deserted to go into the goldfields, many ships were converted to warehouses, stores, taverns, hotels, and one into a jail.[20] As the city expanded and new places were needed on which to build, many ships were destroyed and used as landfill.[20]
