This is an attractive city plan of San Francisco published in the year 1884. It offers a look at an interesting look at the city of San Francisco near the end of the 19th century, before the earthquake of 1906. Notable features include ranchos, the cemeteries at Lone Mountain, the Southern Pacific Railroad lines arriving from the southern peninsula, the Alms House Tract (Laguna Honda hospital today), Spring Valley Water Company reservoir, and more.
Golden Gate Park is simply called “Park.” Several spurious street names are shown in the Marina, including Tonguin and Lewis. These were planned to be on landfill but were never actually created; Tonguin Street is instead Marina Boulevard and Lewis is Marina Green Drive.
The map was included in Langley’s San Francisco Directory. The verso presents an advertisement for Carvill Manufacturing Company, importers and manufactures of “Fine Carriages of Every Description.”
