California Tower - a photo on Flickriver

California Tower

            Now part of the Museum of Man in Balboa Park, San Diego, the California Tower was constructed for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition.

Like most of the architecture along El Prado in Balboa Park, this structure is visually captivating because of its hybrid of architectural styles and use of color and carvings to delight onlookers.  The setting, among palm trees and along the entrance from the Cabrillo Bridge make this one of the most prominent features of the park, and a great visual memory cue for visitors to San Diego.
