Treasure Island (San Francisco) as seen from Yerba Buena Island, by Albrecht Conz, is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0.
In 1933, the state granted the tidelands comprising what is now Treasure Island to the City and County of San Francisco for the construction of an airport and then for the construction of the Golden Gate International Exposition. The City built Treasure Island between 1936 and 1939, and in 1941, the City leased Treasure Island to the United States for use as a military base. In 1944, the U.S. Navy took title to Treasure Island and portions of the surrounding unfilled tidelands through condemnation proceedings. The naval base was closed in 1997 and the state granted the state’s sovereign interests of these lands, in trust, to the Treasure Island Development Authority. In 2014, the Commission approved an exchange Agreement in order to resolve uncertainties about the status of the state’s sovereign interest of these lands and to determine which lands the Treasure Island Development Authority will hold in trust.
