"Map Showing the Golden Gate Park the Avenue and Buena Vista Park", Britton & Rey

This long, narrow map depicts the entire Golden Gate Park from Baker Street to the Pacific Ocean, showing recreational buildings, roads, trails and monuments. Golden Gate Park was founded in 1871 in an unincorporated area west of San Francisco's city limits. It is similar in shape to New York's Central Park but is actually 20% larger in size. Issued on two joined sheets.
