Aquatic Park circa 1865

View west from approximately Hyde and Beach Streets over future Aquatic Park to Black Point (also called Point San Jose and Fort Mason). Pioneer Woolen Mill at left center. Army buildings visible at Point San Jose were constructed in 1864, so this photo dates to mid-late 1860s at earliest. [Point San Jose, S.F. 1860 (sic) V-147] [F810 V-147] (GGNRA/Behrman GOGA 35346) (Cropped version of WNP378.00718-R)
