Preservation Committee Presents:
Great Lost Buildings of San Diego
Some of San Diego’s best buildings, created by our most skilled architects, are no longer around. This lecture is a celebration of San Diego County’s best architecture that has been lost over the years, as seen in historic images. Learn about some of Irving Gill’s finest works, as well as other master architects such as Harrison Albright, Bertram Goodhue, and Frank Hope. Architect and author David Marshall, AIA, will take you on this tour of the past in an effort to keep these buildings from being forgotten.
