About this map

Karquines Strait and the vast marshlands of Suisun Bay dominate this late-nineteenth-century landscape, capturing a vital maritime and industrial corridor. The map reveals the intricate network of sloughs and islands that define the northern reaches of the San Francisco Bay area, including Grizzly Island and Joice Island. On the southern shore, the strategic importance of Benicia is evident with the presence of the U.S. Arsenal at Army Pt., while the heavy industrial and transit hubs of Martinez, Port Costa, and Crockett line the waterfront.
