Cool stuff -- can someone tell me if the band shell near there also dates from the 1894 exposition? --Estephan500 (talk) 14:20, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Class editing of California Midwinter International Exposition of 1894 page[edit]

Hello! The 16 students enrolled in my Golden Gate Park first year seminar (at the University of San Francisco) and I are getting ready to work on this page. We hope to bring more context, add more details, and provide more references and relevant links. Silverinsf (talk) 19:55, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Additions that could be made[edit]

Should add something to Bonet's tower about the cafe inside of it. --TheAnonymousQ (talk) 01:20, 7 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

De Young Museum[edit]

This piece claims, under The Fair's Legacy, that the De Young Museum is one of the, structures that can still be seen in the park today"."Since the current museum building was opened in 2005, it is highly unlikely that this erroneous claim should be left here. I have checked the Wikipedia entry on Time Travel to see if there is any mention of the De Young Museum being sent back and/or forth through time. Assuming we can document that the De Young has indeed been subject to a shift in the space-time continuum then this claim should stand. However, since there is substantial evidence that the current De Young Museum, though situated in the Music Concourse at Golden Gate Park, the very site of the Midwinter International Exposition of 1894, was actually built 111 years after the Expo. So, by higher reason, the current De Young Museum is, in fact, not one of the remaining structures. I agree that we should all be open to the prospect of time travel being a factor, but since the current museum looks nothing like the original building, I think we should assume that the original author who made that claim doesn't know what they are talking about. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 42.115.32.203 (talk) 06:03, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
