Notes
  • STORED OFF SITE AND ON SITE. mchr
  • Leicester B. Holland Prize
  • Significance: When the San Francisco National Cemetery was established in 1884, it was the first national cemetery on the Pacific Coast, and it remained the only national cemetery on that Coast for forty years. Since at least 1866, the cemetery site served as the Post Cemetery for the Presidio of San Francisco, a strategic military post established by Spain in 1776. The National Cemetery is located adjacent to, and has the same orientation as, the historic Main Post, and it fronts Lincoln Boulevard, one of the main historic roads through the Presidio. The National Cemetery nearly tripled in size during its first fifty years. The landscape has changed little since 1934, except for the loss of tree canopy, and is a major designed landscape component within the larger Presidio landscape. The northeast half of the National Cemetery is of predicted archeological interest for the period 1866-1889.
