04-SM-186-X6.3-X6.9 - 0.2 Mile East of Route 280(239) to Route 82(2) in San Bruno, 1965-1967. Right of way acquisition documents for parcels of land in San Mateo County. This file is concerned with building Route 186 (later I-380) through the naval base at San Bruno. Maps and photographs show the extent of the base, which ran along El Camino Real from Sneath Lane to San Bruno Avenue. The base was across the street from "the former Tanforan Race Track," which would be converted into a shopping center. |

Notes |
Information contained in the file speaks to how the 85-acre base, which housed the 12th Naval District Public Works Department, was to be reduced to 12 acres, the rest being turned over to the General Service Administration "for disposal." County schools and the city had already made claims for property. Maps show many buildings on the site and the route of the future freeway. Photos show what the base looked like, which had been established during World War II. (Mitch Postel - 2020) |
