  • Located in the Marina District adjacent to Crissy Field, the Palace of Fine Arts is the only remnant of the magnificent World’s Fair of 1915; The Panama-Pacific International Exposition. The World’s Fair was a crowning achievement for the city of San Francisco, whose citizens had succeeded in almost completely rebuilding their city not even 10 years after the great earthquake of 1906 that turned over 75 percent of the city to rubble and ash. <br />
 <br />
Built of cheap, temporary  materials for the sole purpose of the World’s Fair, the palace was spared demolition after the fair and was in partial ruin by the 1960’s. Conservation efforts succeeded in raising the necessary funds to partially demolish and rebuild the landmark to make it a permanent feature of the city skyline and culture.

  • The Lily Pond and El Prado Arcade are seen under a cool summer night sky in San Diego, CA. The lily pond lies adjacent to the Botanical Building, one of the largest lath structures in the world. The pond, one of the most photographed landmarks in San Diego, was created for the Panama-California Exposition of 1915 in San Diego's Balboa Park. Brought about with the aim of highlighting San Diego as the first U.S. port of call for ships traveling north after passing westward through the newly opened Panama Canal, the exposition occurred at the same time as the larger Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. Nonetheless, the fair was widely regarded as a success, with over two million visitors by the end of 1915 and just under 1.7 million attendees in its second year (due to it's success, the fair was extended from its original one year duration). <br />
<br />
As was customary of world's fair's of that era, the attractions and structures of the Panama-California exposition were constructed with cheap, temporary materials with the intention of being demolished once the fair had ended. However, Many notable visitors including Teddy Roosevelt advocated for the preservation of the immaculate structures. As a result, many of the fair's buildings and gardens were renovated or reconstructed with permanent building materials in order to ensure their enjoyment by future generations.
