San Francisco, CA 94121
Fort Miley Military Reservation, located in San Francisco, California, is a historic site that was originally established in 1899 for coastal defense purposes. Today, much of the area is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, with some buildings converted into the San Francisco VA Medical Center.
Throughout its history, Fort Miley played a significant role in the defense of San Francisco during World War II, with batteries like Battery Chester and Battery 243 Construction Number being key components of the coastal defense strategy. The reservation was decommissioned in 1948, but its legacy as a military stronghold continues to be preserved and remembered.
