Newscopy: "Not only is the monument at Battery and market-sts a memorial to Peter Donahue, founder of San Francisco's first iron foundry, first street railway and first gas company; it also has served to mark the Bay shoreline as it stood before Yerba Buena Cove was filled in. Now, to facilitate the flow of traffic, contractors are moving the monument 40 feet northeast, to the location on which a News artist has superimposed it in photo above."
