A View of St. Augustine, from the Watch Tower at Fort Marion

In the foreground, there are people standing on the roof of Fort Marion. On the ground, to the left, the hot shot oven can be seen. In the distance, the roofs of St. Augustine's built environment are shown. The viewer is positioned on the second floor of the fort's watchtower, providing a view of the opposite bastion, which has a turret on the outer corner of the wall. The fort is also known as Castillo de San Marcos. The fort is on the National Register of Historic Places, and is a National Monument.
