Aquatic Park circa 1865
View west from approximately Hyde and Beach Streets over future Aquatic Park towards Black Point (later called Fort Mason). Pioneer Woolen Mill at left center. Army buildings visible on Black Point were constructed in 1864, so this photo dates to mid-1860s at earliest. [Black Point 1862 (sic)] (Identical to wnp71.2154 but with different cropping.)
