Botanical Building and Lagoon, Balboa Park
The Botanical Building and lagoon (Reflecting Pool, Laguna de Espejo, Laguna de las Flores, later Lily Pond). The building was designed by the architectual firm of Bertram Goodhue (1869-1924) for the Panama-California Exposition of 1915 and houses a conservatory open to the weather through its redwood lath roof. This roofing is responsible for the alternate name for the building--"lath house."
