The Presidio of San Francisco's newest vista, Immigrant Point Overlook, offers sweeping views from Baker Beach to the Marin Headlands and beyond.

This scenic overlook is dedicated to those immigrants who may have entered this area through the Golden Gate. On top of the low stone wall at the edge of the overlook are carved the words of President Woodrow Wilson.

“We opened the gates to all the world and said, ‘Let all men who want to be free come to us and they will be welcome.’”
