Founded in 1776 by Father Francisco Palóu under the direction of Junípero Serra, Mission San Francisco de Asís (popularly known as Mission Dolores) is the oldest surviving intact structure in San Francisco and the sixth religious settlement established in the Alta California mission chain. Following secularization in the 1830s, the surrounding outbuildings and adobe quarters were converted into commercial uses before Catholic administration was restored. Lawrence & Houseworth's views from 1865 and 1866 provide some of the earliest commercial stereoscopic documentation of this Spanish-Mexican colonial landmark, preserving its rustic adobe walls, original redwood roof framing, and surrounding dirt plains before intense urban infill reshaped the Mission District.
