City Walks #36: Civic Center







We've been through the Civic Center many times, on buses, on foot, on trips to the library and farmers market. This time we took the time to meander through the UN Plaza, and we attempted to go check out the dome in City Hall, but it was closed. The Asian Art Museum is being saved for the Samurai exhibit. The Civic Center is definitely a neat place that many tourists avoid. Maybe because of all the homeless people and the lovely smell...

The Civic Center also features the Veterans Building - where the United Nations Charter was signed, an opera house, a symphony hall, and the main library.
