It’s funny to think that only 69 years ago this skatespot in San Francisco, formally known as Battery Crosby, had a much gnarlier activity going on. Massive guns that could fire ammunition 14,600 yards were mounted to protect The Bay from a threat of invasion during World War II. Luckily today, skaters and non skaters from all over the world are able to peacefully visit this spot to enjoy the incredible views it provides.
