World's Fair Tower and Sunken Gardnes, Golden Gate International Exposition

Architectural splendor of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition will be enhanced by the half-million dollar landscaping program, which will provide tree-lined promenades and sunken gardens such as this, serving as an approach to the mile-long esplanade of the Fair. Rising 392 feet is the imposing World's Fair tower, dominant structure of the $40,000,000 project to open February 18, 1939.
