About this map

Muir Beach and the coastal edges of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area dominate this coastal survey. The geography transition from the residential hills of Sausalito and Marin City in the north to the urban grid of San Francisco in the south is broken only by the steep cliffs and open water of the Golden Gate. Coastal navigation is defined by landmarks like the Beacon at Point Bonita and the cluster of rocks near Point Lobos, including Seal Rocks and Mile Rock.

The southern portion of the map provides a look at the Richmond District and the northern edge of Golden Gate Park, where the street grid includes Lincoln Way and Judah St. Here, the built environment of the VA Hospital at Ft Miley and Sutro Heights Park meets the Pacific shoreline at Lands End. This map documents a landscape where military history, urban development, and protected open spaces like Mount Tamalpais State Park converge at the entrance to the bay.
