The museum opened in 1895 as an outgrowth of the California Midwinter International Exposition of 1894. The building was badly damaged in the Earthquake of 1989. It is clad with variably perforated and dimpled copper plates, whose patina will slowly change through exposure to the elements. This exterior facade was developed and fabricated by engineers at Zahner. A 44 m observation tower allows visitors to see much of Golden Gate Park's Music Concourse and rises above the Park's treetops providing a view of the Golden Gate and Marin Headlands.
