About this map

The Presidio of San Francisco and a dense network of coastal fortifications including Fort Miley, Fort Mason, and Fort Winfield Scott anchor the mouth of the Golden Gate in this post-war survey. The map captures the Bay Area during a period of massive mid-century expansion, showing the established footprints of Richmond, Berkeley, and Oakland linked by the Oakland-Bay Bridge.
