Monterey Bay Aquarium

The Monterey Bay Aquarium is defined by its location on the site of the former Hovden Cannery, which was once the largest sardine packing facility on the historic Cannery Row. You can identify the building by its exterior, which incorporates original structural elements of the old cannery, including distinctive silo-like pump houses and a facade that mirrors the industrial architecture made famous by the writer John Steinbeck.
