Above, left: A small section of one of three large murals specially painted for "The Waterfront" exhibit being constructed in the park's Visitor Center. The mural depicts the San Francisco Bay shoreline near the Golden Gate as it looked in the 1770s. In the distance on the hill is The Presidio (fort), built by the Spanish in 1776. Above, right: The introductory panel of the exhibit uses an 1878 map of San Francisco showing the six immersive environments along the "walk." NPS Photos
