Looking west along the Avenida De Los Palacios (Avenue of Palaces), during the California Pacific International Exposition of 1935 held in San Diego's Balboa Park. On the right is the Cafe of the World, which existed in Balboa Park from 1913 to 1962, formerly the Home Economy Building of the Panama-California Exposition of 1915 and also known as the Pan-Pacific Building and the American Legion Building. The California Tower can be seen on the left (part of the original Exposition's California State Building), and just beneath it to the right the old Science and Education Building, in 1935 and Palace of Photography and in 1936 the Palace of Medical Science, then Veterans of Foreign Wars Building. Like the Home Economy Building, it was demolished in the 1960s.
