Presidio Neighborhood Mental Map Project

Description

Mental maps are artistic renderings of a person's perception of the world around them. Just as no two people are exactly alike, each mental map showcases a person's unique geographical perspective.

The Presidio Neighborhood Mental Map Project is a collection of mental maps created for archival use and display at SBTHP 50th Anniversary events in 2013.
