The Presidio Trust and the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy opened another overlook today:
The Crissy Field Overlook is the third major vista point to be completed in the Presidio. The Overlook is part of a program to nearly double the size of the Presidio’s trail system and create new ways for the community to experience the Presidio’s great outdoors. The stone plaza features views of the waterfront, San Francisco Bay, Alcatraz, and the San Francisco skyline. The Overlook was supported by a generous gift from the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund.

No, not that Presidio Theatre on 2340 Chestnut in the Marina District.
This Presidio Theatre at 99 Moraga in the Presidio. The one that is temporarily closed.
A sad scene from the Main Post Theatre featuring a poster advertising a showing (The Blob, featuring Steve McQueen and Burt Bacharach’s campy music) from five years ago.
But that’s the way it goes with single screen movie houses these days.
C’est la vie, mon chéri
