About this map

Hunters Point and the adjacent U.S. Naval Reservation dominate the industrial shoreline of San Francisco in this late twentieth-century record. The map details a landscape of specialized maritime infrastructure, from the Lash Lighter Basin to the piers of India Basin. These features reflect a legacy of naval operations and shipping along the western edge of San Francisco Bay.

In contrast to the heavy industry of the northern waterfront, the southern reaches transition into preserved spaces and critical transit hubs. The Candlestick Point State Recreation Area provides a recreational break along the shore, while the northern edge of the San Francisco International Airport appears at the southern map boundary. Across the water, Bay Farm Island shows a mix of residential settlement and open spaces like the Campground, linked to the mainland by complex corporate and city boundaries that traverse the bay floor alongside deep-water routes like Oyster Point Channel.
