Crissy Field
The area was originally a rich salt marsh and a gathering ground for the Ohlone. It later served as the landing site of Spanish explorers and Russian, English and Boston traders. Shortly after the Panama-Pacific International Exposition (1915) was held there in 1915 it became one of America's foremost military airfields and a portion of the Presidio army base.
The Presidio ceased all military operations and the base became part of the federal Golden Gate National Recreation Area under the Base Closure Act, in the 1990s.
De lugar de reunión para los indios Ohlone, pasó a estratégico aeropuerto de la marina nacional. Hasta que en 1990, cesó toda actividad militar y el área, se convirtió en lo que es hoy: Un oasis de arena y buen rollo en general.
