Since its completion in 1937, it has been one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco, California, and the United States. Renowned for its stunning Art Deco design and striking International Orange color, the bridge has become a beloved icon and a critical part of the region’s transportation infrastructure, providing a critical link between San Francisco and Marin County to the north.
