"A World War II U.S. Army Radar Site established in 1943. Used to provide fire control information to large caliber (6" and above) coastal gun batteries in the Harbor Defense of San Francisco against enemy warships. Located on Hill 640 Military Reservation near Stinson Beach, Marin County, California. Closed in 1946." - FortWiki

Hill 640 has been repurposed as a part of Mt. Tamalpais State Park. It is likely to remain maintained as-is for the next several years.
