This is from The San Francisco Bay Area: A Metropolis in Perspective, which suggests, but does not quite say, that it is Olmsted's original plan for Golden Gate Park.
More interesting to me is that the base map is the 1859 Coast Survey map with the street grid extended beyond what streets existed in 1859, and yet the extended grid is not quite today's actual street system. In particular, here the Mission streets extend east into the Potrero without jogging, even though the Potrero subdivision map of 1864 acknowledges the jog, which apparently already existed by 1861. Neither does it correspond to the 1854 Official Map where the two grids are completely unified. Was this an attempt to reconcile the grids by making the corners of the blocks not quite square, or a drafting mistake?

I can't describe how much I love the combination of colors in this shot. It's all soothing : warm and cold at their best harmony.
In the current economy, it's easy to forget some of the simple blessings of life like the one that came ouf of this gift bag.
Taken for Active Assignment Weekly: Perspectives
WIT: Recruited my 7 yr old to get up at dawn and made our way to the peak of a local bridge. Had to bring a stool since he was shorter than the wall. Waited till the sun got over the horizon and had him hold the bag up just so and coached him to look at the bag as if something was floating out of it. He did great.
Shot with polarizer to control glare on highest aperture I could get. Flash so that his face didn't get washed out. Cropped since there was a parking lot to the left and light contrast adjustment. Added border.
Went to donut shop to buy my son the donut I promised him if he helped with picture. :)
These two images were taken at the Missouri Botanical Gardens, roughly two hours apart and from opposite sides of the reflecting pool.
