Abstract
ON a man-made island of 400 acres which President Roosevelt has referred to as our latest insular possession, architects, artists, and engineers have constructed a magic walled city about an architectural plan that combines the ancient designs of Burmese, Cambodian, Incan, Mayan, and other Pacific cultures into the unique and surprisingly beautiful Golden Gate International Exposition. One and a half million dollars spent on landscaping and another million dollars worth of sculptures, murals, and decorations have made of it a “Garden of Paradise” and a comprehensive artistic architectural unit rather than a disconnected assemblage of exhibit buildings.
