A panoramic view of the Presidio of San Francisco's North Cantonment, looking out over rows of barracks and officers' housing toward San Francisco Bay. Alcatraz Island is visible in the distance across the water. This developing garrison area reflects the Presidio's growth into a major West Coast Army post in the early twentieth century.
