Treasure Island is an artificially created island in the San Francisco Bay that is adjacent to Yerba Buena Island, which intersects the Bay Bridge. Treasure Island was formerly home to a naval base, and now is host to a number of residences. It is serviced 24 hours a day by Muni bus 108.
There's a number of large warehouses on Treasure Island, and movies are routinely filmed there (such as
What Dreams May Come).
In 2007, the island emerged from a ten-year, post Cold War slumber to host the Treasure Island Music Festival, attended by 10,000 and headlined by Modest Mouse and Thievery Corporation.
