The House of Hospitality Building is the park's Visitor's Center.
What would become Balboa Park was dedicated on May 26, 1868, when a 1400 acre tract of nine city pueblo lots was set aside by the City of San Diego. San Diego's population was 2,301 people and there were only 915 houses at this time.
The development of Balboa Park began in earnerst for the Panama-California Exposition of 1915-16, and extended to the California Pacific International Exposition of 1935-36.
The theme of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition was to celebrate man's progress and achievements. The Cabrillo Bridge and most of the Cultural Center "Buildings" along El Prado were built for the Exposition under the supervision of Bertram Grovesnor Goodhue (Los Angeles Central Library and the Nebraska State Capitol).
Balboa Park is on the National Register #77000331, and it is also a National Historic Landmark.
The Jellico Motel, just off I-75, Jellico, Tennessee. I haven't been able to determine exactly when it closed, but it appears to still have been in business in at least 2014.
TOP: right shoulder. My cat Beasley grabbed my arm. He had just been hit by a car and I was carrying him to the vet. He knew he was dying. MIDDLE LEFT: sternum. Mole removed by a doctor who told me, "Good thing you're married. Then I wont' worry about the scar this will leave. Only your husband will see it." Little did he know he left a small heart shaped mole. MIDDLE: nose. Car accident. I hydroplaned on the freeway and a barrier. My face went into the steering wheel. This was before airbags. RIGHT: right leg. I sat on a pair of scissors. Seriously. BOTTOM LEFT: left ankle. A terrible Big Wheel accident while babysitting. RIGHT: left foot. When I was 5, I sliced my foot on a broken ceramic collar for a light fixture. It was on the basement floor and probably is STILL on the basement floor. No one cleans anything at my parent's house.
Now. Don't you know me SO much better?
At the north-east corner, we have a kumquat tree. All four citrus have uplights. The stair at the north edge leads up to the elm room and is well lit, as is the floor of the garden.
One of the chandelier light fixtures in Barberian's Red Wine Cellar. I believe this originally installed at Toronto General Hospital.
This is the inside of restored Union Station in downtown Denver. There are shops, hotels, restaurants, coffee shops, and of course, a bus and train terminal.
I can't believe I walked away from these last week when I first saw them in a local junk shop. When I went back, I expected the owner to ask a fortune for them but he charged me $1.50 for both. Score!
I love color and this stained glass circle is the bottom part of an overhead light fixture at a friend's house.
