    Rockfall Protection POINT BONITA LIGHTHOUSE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE, US POINT BONITA LIGHTHOUSE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE Rockfall Protection Project Point Bonita Lighthouse Pedestrian Bridge Zip code 94965 Location Sausalito, CA Country/Region United States Year of installation 2012 Customer National Park Service Engineering HDR, Inc. Contractor AIS Construction (defunct) Other participating companies Yeh and Associates, Inc. Initial situation In 1954, the U.S. Coast Guard built a suspension footbridge to access the Point Bonita Lighthouse on the outer northwestern point overlooking the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. Over the years, the bridge had been renovated, but needed to be replaced in 2012. Before a new bridge could be constructed, the rock face needed to be stabilized. The point’s rock mass was fracturing and displaying signs of instability due to years of exposure to harsh marine elements. Stabilization was required to support the weight of a modern bridge without fracturing further. Description A stainless steel anchored SPIDER S4-230 mesh system was installed to stabilize the rock face. The diamond shaped net is comprised of three 4 mm wires twisted into a 1x3 strand, with tensile strength of 239 ksi and a diameter of 5/16 inches. As required by the National Park Service, the net was powder coated bronze to better blend with the natural color of the rock mass and further protect against corrosion. The project won ENR California’s Best Small Project — Construction award in 2012.

    Building 201, Fort Mason, San Francisco, CA 94123 (415) 561-3000 www.parksconservancy.org 2 011 report to the community Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy dear park friends and supporters, Ten years ago, we celebrated the transformation of an old military airfield into a beloved national park. At the heart and soul of the Golden Gate National Parks, Crissy Field was created through the visionary leadership of the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund, the community members who contributed volunteer time and generous donations, and the efforts of the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy in support of the National Park Service (NPS). Since its grand reopening on May 6, 2001, that spectacular shoreline park has repaid us with billions of Mark Buell Greg Moore memories—made, kept, and cherished by 10 million visitors to Crissy Field. On the pages of our 2011 Report to the Community, you’ll meet just a few of them—and see the indelible impact, drawn across their smiles, of these wondrous parklands. By the beaming faces of visitors, volunteers, and staff, we are constantly reinvigorated to work on behalf of these parks, alongside our partners the NPS and Presidio Trust. By the growing diversity of our park community, we draw inspiration to ensure these natural, cultural, and historic resources are accessible to all. And by the contributions of our 12,750 members and the support of our park friends, we fulfill our mission of Parks For All Forever. In this report, we highlight our projects and programs at Crissy Field, Lands End, and Mori Point; along Redwood Creek; on Alcatraz; and throughout the Presidio and the Marin Headlands—among many more accomplishments across 80,600 acres of national parkland.

  • Light Station Journal
    Point Arena Lighthouse Keepers, Inc. Light Station Journal Winter 2015 New Lighthouse Logo The cover of this issue of the Light Station Journal features the new logo of the Point Arena Lighthouse. This new logo was the brainchild of former Executive Director Ty Moore before he left the Lighthouse. Ty contracted with graphic artist Dave Chapple of Chapple Design in Los Angeles to create it. Ty’s direction to Dave was to create a logo that would be very modern and yet evocative of all the things the Lighthouse represents – historical, iconic, unique, scenic, oceanic, exhilarating, world class – and be a “brand,” like the Nike “swoosh” or Coca-Cola script. The new logo may not initially appear to have a Lighthouse as part of its design, but in actuality it does have it as a main element. The vertical point and line are the cartography symbol for a light, and that symbol can be seen on charts and maps indicating there is a Lighthouse at that location. The stylized sweep that makes the logo appear to be the letter “A” is meant to evoke both the winds that are a big part of the peninsula where the Lighthouse stands and the waves that crash on its shoreline. The brass colored shading of the logo pays homage to the use of brass for the frame of the original First Order Fresnel lens in our Museum, and the use of brass in many marine applications and buildings. Cartography Symbols The new logo will appear on all Point Arena Lighthouse Keepers, Inc. (PALKI) stationary, publicity, business cards and employee apparel starting in March.
