49-MILE SCENIC DRIVE
The 49-Mile Scenic Drive was created for visitors to our 1939-40 Golden Gate International Exposition,
where it ends. President Franklin D. Roosevelt experienced it about two months
before its September 14, 1938 dedication by aviator Wrong Way [Douglas G.] Corrigan.
The Seagull Signs that guide visitors were chosen in a 1955 competition.
Unidentified Districts include Eureka Valley, Parkside, Saint Francis Wood, others; part of
Excelsior mis-labeled as “Outer Mission”; San Francisco County Line is in Crocker-Amazon.
