TRIO OF EXPERT BUILDERS
FOR SAN DIEGO EXPOSITION

San Diego, Cal. Feb. with the
securing of Bertran G. Goodhue, a not
ed New York architect, as advisory
architect for the Panama California ex-
position, the directors of the exposi-
tion have completed the trio of exposi-
ton builders who will have charge of
laying out and beautifying the grounds
in Balboa Park, in San Diego, and
building the mission City" that is to
house the unique exposition San Diego
is to hold during the entire year of
1916, to celebrate the completion of
the Panama canal. Others of the trio
are John G. Olmsted, landscape archi-
tect, and Frank p. Allen, constructing
engineer.
No other exposition ever held in any
country has been able to bring so much
talent together for the work of build
| ing an exposition as these three men
represent John G. Olmsted, of the
firm of Olmsted Brothers, of Boston,
| is recognized the world over as the
greatest landscape architect in the
world Frank p Allen gained a world
wide reputation as a constructor when
he completed the Alaska-Yukon expo
sition in Seattle in one year and eight
months, and permitted the gates to
open on time with every building com
pleted and occupied.
Bertran G. Goodhue, although COM
partively young man, has made a study
of the mission-colonial type of archi-
lecture so comprehensive and pro-
found as to make it safe to say that
he has no competitor in this particular
| line of work. He has not only travelled
over the whole world to view notable
buildings in this style, but he has also
been asked to draw the original de.
signs for nearly every one of the build
ings of this type built in this country
1 luSu psioI ICh yCdA WI NOOu
hue is a member of the firm of Cram
Goodhue & Ferguson, of New York
He has already begun work on the de
signs for the buildings to be erected
in Balboa Park for the Panama-Cali
fornia exposition, and actual construc
ton will begin on the first of these
early in the coming spring.
Southern California is particularly
fortunate from an architects point o.
view, because it has this style of archi
tecture ready to hand" saiys Mr., Good
hue. 1T is to be hoped that much o
the qualities of the California mission!
will be made to appear in the build
ings of the exposition. This style ha!
great advantages, in that it is extreme
ly effective, relying for its beauty no
so much on ornamentation as upon thu
massive walls and arches. Much o
the early history of California can b,
perpetuated in these buildings in Bal
boa park, and especially in such o
them as are to remain as permanen
structures, after the Panama-C California
exposition has passed into glorious his
tory"
