Mission Aerial Mar 22, 1957
Aerial view of a 3-alarm fire on Duboce across from Woodward Street (Between Mission and Valencia Street), now in the path of the Central Freeway and site of SOMA West Skatepark, showing the northern Mission District and Potrero Hill. Circular roadway to right of smoke plume is onramp to Freeway. Seals Stadium at top right. At lower right, National Guard Armory and former Valencia Theatre, which in 1929 had been converted to a church. (Fire was the same day as a major earthquake, though determined to be unrelated.)
