1950 Map of San Francisco North

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

San Francisco's northern waterfront and the Golden Gate dominate this 1950 survey, showcasing a city in its mid-century prime. The urban landscape is dense with historical detail, from the heights of Nob Hill and Telegraph Hill to the complex rail yards at the AT & SF Freight Yards near China Basin. The era's transportation network is clearly defined by the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, while the S P Passenger Ferry still serves the Ferry Building.
