  • Casa Del Prado in Balboa Park
    Chapter 19 HISTORY OF THE CASA DEL PRADO IN BALBOA PARK Of buildings remaining from the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, exhibit buildings north of El Prado in the agricultural section survived for many years. They were eventually absorbed by the San Diego Zoo. Buildings south of El Prado were gone by 1933, except for the New Mexico and Kansas Buildings. These survive today as the Balboa Park Club and the House of Italy. This left intact the Spanish-Colonial complex along El Prado, the main east-west avenue that separated north from south sections The Sacramento Valley Building, at the head of the Plaza de Panama in the approximate center of El Prado, was demolished in 1923 to make way for the Fine Arts Gallery. The Southern California Counties Building burned down in 1925. The San Joaquin Valley and the Kern-Tulare Counties Building, on the promenade south of the Plaza de Panama, were torn down in 1933. When the Science and Education and Home Economy buildings were razed in 1962, the only 1915 Exposition buildings on El Prado were the California Building and its annexes, the House of Charm, the House of Hospitality, the Botanical Building, the Electric Building, and the Food and Beverage Building. This paper will describe the ups and downs of the 1915 Varied Industries and Food Products Building (1935 Food and Beverage Building), today the Casa del Prado. When first conceived the Varied Industries and Food Products Building was called the Agriculture and Horticulture Building. The name was changed to conform to exhibits inside the building.

  • Seaworld in San Diego, California
    Seaworld in San Diego, California Watch Dolphins play at the SeaWorld in San Diego, CA With roller coasters, water rides, and animal exhibits, SeaWorld is a popular destination for families to spend the day in San Diego, California. Various attractions at SeaWorld makes it one of the top visited destinations in the world. The Bayside Skyride, a six-minute gondola ride takes you over part of Mission Bay on two 80-foot (24m) towers, and lands on the other side. The distance between these two towers is the longest out of any VonRoll Skyride ever built. The SeaWorld Sky Tower was built in 1969. The ride rises at a speed of 150 feet per minute (46 m/min) while gyrating slowly (1.02 rpm) on the 320-foot tower to offer panoramic views of San Diego and the bay near the park. The Journey to Atlantis attraction is a flume ride and roller coaster themed ride reminiscing the lost city of Atlantis. This ride makes you experience butterflies in your stomach. The ride exits in a large marine museum that houses Leopard sharks, Spotted eagle rays, Cownose rays and Southern stingrays. The park’s raft ride, called Shipwreck Rapids, takes riders through the wild turtle exhibit and right through a waterfall, while Manta is SeaWorld’s biggest thrill ride. Sesame Street's Bay of Play area is based upon the children's television series 'Sesame Street.' There are three interesting rides in this area: Abby's Seastar Spin, Elmo's Flying Fish and Oscar's Rockin' Eel. At the Turtle Reef you can see over 60 turtles along with fishes in an oceanarium.

  • History of the California Building and the San Diego Museum Of
    CHAPTER 9 THE CALIFORNIA BUILDING: A CASE OF THE MISUNDERSTOOD BAROQUE AND THE HISTORY OF THE SAN DIEGO MUSEUM/ MUSEUM OF MAN by Richard W. Amero “My judgment is now clear and unfettered, and that dark cloud of ignorance has disappeared, which the continual reading of these detestable books of knight-errantry has cast over my understanding.” Miguel de Cervantes. Don Quixote, Book 2, Part 16. Very few people appear to have looked at the south facade of the California Building in San Diego's Balboa Park. H. K. Raymenton described it as Plateresque in style.[1] Trent Sanford thought it better than anything in Mexico or Spain.[2] William Templeton Johnson called it the finest Spanish- Renaissance facade in existence,[3] and Thomas E. Tallmadge hailed it as the best example of Churrigueresque architecture in the world.[4] An article in the San Diego Union, January 1, 1915, asserted the California Building was "copied in many essential details from the magnificent cathedral at Oaxaca, Mexico."[5] Christian Brinton repeated this suggestion in June of the same year.[6] After checking with Bertram Goodhue, who designed the California Building, C. Matlack Price referred to the comparison as "palpably absurd."[7] The Late-Renaissance Cathedral of Oaxaca, rebuilt in the early eighteenth century, has a compartmentalized facade with three horizontal tiers and five vertical bays which hold one principal and two lateral doorways, and is flanked by two squat, single-stage towers.[8] None of its details resemble those on the California Building. Carol Mendel declared the California Building facade was taken from the seventeenth to nineteenth-century late-Renaissance, Baroque, Neo- Classical facade of the Cathedral of Mexico in Mexico City.[9] If she had selected the mid-eighteenth century Sagrario Metropolitano, which adjoins the cathedral, she would have been closer to the truth, for this building's facade is an outstanding example of Mexican Ultra-Baroque, or, as it is generally known, Churrigueresque.[10] To George H.

  • Casa Del Prado History
    The Committee of One Hundred Panama-California Sculpture Court, Casa del Prado Courtyard History of the Casa del Prado Photo # Completed in 1971, the Casa del Prado is a modified reconstruction of the largest of the temporary exhibition 01 halls built in 1914 for the Panama-California Exposition of 1915-1916. The exposition celebrated the opening of the Panama Canal, which was expected to bring expanded trade and prosperity to the port cities of the Pacific Coast. Like the other Spanish Baroque style buildings of Balboa Park’s Central Mesa, the exterior of this building was designed as a part of a romantic and idealized evocation of a prosperous Spanish Colonial city of the early 18th Century. Although many of the ornamental features of these buildings were inspired by actual historical buildings in Spain and in Spain’s New World colonies, the intense richness of the exposition’s architecture was deliberately exaggerated to enhance the fun and fantasy experienced by the exposition’s visitors. The Panama-California Exposition’s Supervising Architect was Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue (1869-1924), of Cram, Goodhue & Ferguson, with offices in New York, Boston and Los Angeles. Goodhue controlled all design decisions for the exposition’s permanent and temporary structures, and employed two main assistants, Carleton Monroe Winslow (1876-1946), Project Architect, and Frank P. Allen, Jr. The Committee of One Hundred Panama-California Sculpture Court, Casa del Prado Courtyard (1881-1943), the project’s Chief Engineer and Director of Works. They are credited with the design of most of the exposition’s “temporary” buildings. The Casa del Prado’s original building was designed by Winslow.
