The San Francisco War Memorial and Performing Arts Center is recognizable by the pair of near-identical, Beaux-Arts buildings that face each other across a formal courtyard. Opened in nineteen thirty-two, the complex was designed by Arthur Brown Junior to honor those who served in World War I. It remains one of the largest performing arts centers in the country, encompassing venues like the War Memorial Opera House, the Veterans Building, and Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall.
