General Plan. Tenth Annual California Flower Festival, September 15th - 19th, 1934, Exposition Bldg - Oakland. Alameda County's Most Colorful CIVIC Event
Oakland, California, By the architect, 1934. An architectural layout of the interior of the exposition floor, with booths, facilities, etc. numbered and sections subtitled; 13 x 8 1/2; old vertical fold lines; age-toning to verso only; in very good condition. An unrecorded piece of the San Francisco Bay Area's history, it was created by the pioneer landscape architect, who had founded the Modernist garden design, known as the "California Style." Thomas Dolliver Church (1902 - 1978) studied at UC Berkeley, Harvard, and the American Academy in Rome, before setting up practice in San Francisco in 1933. He would reportedly create over 2000 private gardens around California and 24 other states. He would work on campus master plans for Stanford, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz, and other institutions. He would also design the grounds of the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, the Embassy of the United States in Havana, the General Motors Research Laboratory in Detroit, etc. Very good .
