Hall of Transportation, Treasure Island, Theatre and historical place in Treasure Island, San Francisco, United States

The Hall of Transportation features Moderne architectural design elements with geometric shapes spread across two acres of land on Treasure Island.

Built in 1938 for the Golden Gate International Exposition, the building was intended to become an airplane hangar but never served this purpose.

The structure served as an exhibition space during the 1939-1940 Golden Gate International Exposition, displaying innovations in transportation technology.

The Hall of Transportation stands on the southeast side of California Avenue between Avenues D and F, with coordinates at 37°49'5"N and 122°22'2"W.

The National Register of Historic Places added this transportation exhibition hall to its list on February 26, 2008, recognizing its architectural value.
