Beach Chalet and WPA Murals

The Beach Chalet at Ocean Beach is an Art Deco-era building at 1000 Great Highway that houses restaurants and public spaces and contains large WPA-era murals installed in the 1930s. The murals depict coastal and recreational themes and are documented examples of New Deal public art in San Francisco. The site links the city's beachfront recreation culture with its public-art and historic-preservation efforts.
