Event Details

An innovative adaptive reuse of a dilapidated, long-abandoned historic warehouse for public use, Pier 24 is part of the ongoing reinvention and transformation of the city’s outmoded port infrastructure. Converted into an “active storage” and display space, Pier 24 is currently the largest space of its kind dedicated to photography in the United States. Uncover the history, challenges and rehabilitation efforts behind Pier 24’s renovation during this guided tour of the revived space. The Pilara Foundation will also introduce the photography collection, explain why they chose the site, and describe the building’s current uses.

 

Tour led by Mike Buhler of San Francisco Architectural Heritage, Jay Turnbull, FAIA and Elisa Skaggs, Assoc. AIA of Page and Turnbull, Chris McCall of the Pilara Foundation and Simon Snellgrove of Waterfront Partners.
