Caption: Fort Velasco Sketch
Additional Description: This is a sketch of the famous Fort Velasco which represents the fort during the Mexican period of occupation. The sketch is located at the Surfisde City Hall. Although it is possible to judge the size of the fort by estimating the size of the large ocean-going ship in relation to the size of the fort in the sketch, the fort should not be considered small because it was very large.
