Informations supplémentaires

In the background of the shot, the Waldo Tunnel takes US Route 101 through the hills towards Sausalito. By the 1890s, the US War Department was concerned about the state of the country's seacoast fortifications and made recommendations to modernise and re-arm all existing sea-ports. The 'Endicott Board', named after Secretary of War, William C. Endicott, ranked San Francisco as the most important harbour defence on the Pacific Coast. Fort Baker (centre background) was built between 1902 and 1910 to house the soldiers at eight new 'Endicott' batteries on the north side of the Golden Gate Strait. Coastal fortification reinforced concrete Battery Yates, built between 1892 and 1905, is located on the headland right mid-distance.
