Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress Report of the Engineers in Charge: To Devise and Provide a System of Sewerage, for the City and County of San Francisco, for the Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 1893 Its southern boundary is an east and west line from ocean to bay, lying about seven miles south from the Golden Gate. The exterior form of the city may be described us an irregular square with sides nearly conforming to the cardinal directions except that the central portion of its northern front juts out at Fort Point beyond a right line, and that its western and eastern fronts bear somewhat east of south instead of due south. The spur of the Coast Range Mountains, which has its northern terminal at the Golden Gate has no point within the city rising to the dignity of a mountain, although several gracefully-rounded peaks, Las Papas or Twin Peaks and Blue Mountain, near the center of the city, rise to a height of over nine hundred feet. The peninsula spur of the Coast Range divides the city, as above described, into two main water sheds, of which one sends its drainage toward the ocean, the other toward the bay. The dividing line between these two slopes enters the city limits from the south a little west of a median line, and holds a quite direct course to Fort Point. The lowest points of this summit are over 20 feet high. The southern division of the Southern Pacific Railroad and the Mission or County Road cross the same south of Twin Peaks; parts of Golden Gate Park and Richmond He upon the flat top of the summit north of this central group of hills.
