As you enter the first floor of the
Beach Chalet at the NW corner of
Golden Gate Park, a
wraparound mural created by
Lucien Labaudt highlights the San Francisco area as it appeared during the 1930s. If you take the time to read the many panels accompanying the endearing scenes, you will gather bits and pieces of how it felt to live in the city during Depression-ridden times.
