San Francisco Steel Metropolis Map Poster
Cold slate and concrete greys for a modern cityscape aesthetic. Fits right in a retirement farewell desk.
About This Design
This is San Francisco drawn with every street, river, and park in a steel metropolis palette. The street layout is real. Only the colors change.

About San Francisco
Few maps are as iconic as this peninsula, violently bordered by the crashing Pacific Ocean and the sheer expanse of the Bay. The brilliant red span of the Golden Gate Bridge extends northward towards Marin County, while the twisting switchbacks of Lombard Street break up the punishingly steep, relentless street grid.
