The park surrounds a large sloped concrete ramp leading to the water and features outlines of various ships launched there, as well as an outline of a segment of the BART Transbay Tube, built and launched there between 1965 and 1969.[5]
The park's name refers to the presence on the waterfront of two historic cranes, called Nick and Nora after the characters in the "Thin Man" films of the '30s and '40s.[6]
