The Development of the Two Ends of the Great San Francisco Dune Fields: geographic histories of Golden Gate Park and South of the Slot
Architect Glenn Lym will speak and show off parts of the 3D CAD model he’s been working on of early SF topography, roughly 1850 through 1890. Talk includes short video of the history of GG Park.
Glenn will begin with a look at the history of Golden Gate Park through a 20 minute video, and will move on to a live presentation of material related to the development of Market Street — how the the flatlands of SoMa, Union Square and the Tenderloin and were created. Materials include period photography, current and CAD based videos.
