Bay Area Reporter :: New marsh percolates on San Francisco s northwestern shore

New wetlands are percolating on San Francisco s northwestern shore, with a hiking trail running through it that provides stunning views of the Golden Gate Bridge and urban bird-watching spots. Called Quartermaster Reach Marsh, the nearly seven-acre site is situated next to Crissy Field Marsh within the Presidio, the former U.S. military installation turned national park site. It opened to the public earlier this month after years in the planning and construction stages. Helping spearhead its creation has been Michael Boland, a gay man who is the chief park development and visitor engagement officer for the Presidio Trust. The federal agency oversees the management of the decommissioned Army base and is working to restore its natural landscapes.

The Presidio opens new hiking trails and green space with the restored Quartermaster Reach Marsh

(Art Zendarski via Presidio Trust) The Presidio opens new hiking trails and green space with the restored Quartermaster Reach Marsh By Dec 18, 2020 Since it first opened in 1776 as a Spanish Army post overlooking San Francisco Bay, the Presidio has made a slow and steady transformation back to its original state as an epic natural green space in The City, and has been part of the National Park Service since 1994. Today our 1,491-acre, urban national park continues its ongoing evolution with the opening of a brand new trail, cutting through the area s $23 million wetlands restoration project set in the foreground of the Golden Gate Bridge. And, with socially distanced outdoor strolls among the few activities allowed to Bay Areans under the new stay-at-home order, we can t think of a better time to get out and explore new terrain.

New Presidio Trail to Connect Park to San Francisco Bay

Updated on December 11, 2020 at 8:27 pm NBC Universal, Inc. Visitors to San Francisco s northern waterfront will soon have more room to roam as the Presidio National Trust opens a new trail crafted at the site of a newly-restored salt water marsh now called Quartermaster Reach. The new trail, opening next week, extends across a newly-constructed bridge, its path joining the bay to the upper Tennessee Hollow watershed and El Pollín Spring. The 6-acre site sits just east of Crissy Field and was originally a tidal marsh filled in preparation for the 1915 Panama Pacific International Exposition. After the fair, the U.S. Army paved over the land, and for decades it sat in the shadow of the behemoth Doyle Drive.
