The
Palace of Fine Arts in the
Marina District of
San Francisco, California, is a monumental structure originally constructed for the
1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in order to exhibit works of art presented there. One of only a few surviving structures from the Exposition, it is the only one still situated on its original site. It was rebuilt in 1965, and renovation of the lagoon, walkways, and a
seismic retrofit were completed in early 2009.
