An important place in S.F

Bill Graham Civic Auditorium / City Hall


                         This is one of the important places in S.F for me, I really love this place. Do you know where it is when you look at the photo above? Yes, It is the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, in there, it can hold 7,000 people and it was built in 1915. It is in Civic Center 99 Grove St (between Larkin St & Polk St). As you can see in the picture, there is a big space in front of it and there is covered with lots of grass which is very beautiful. Bill Graham Civic Auditorium and City Hall both are very important place in S.F because it is the government office, and a lot of people had their wedding in City Hall too, and sometimes there is a concert in Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.
         
                       For me, this place is very important because my high school graduation was in there. The graduation was on May 23, 2012 which was on Wednesday, my mom, my aunts and my uncles had to go to work but they asked their boss to have a day off so they could attend the graduation. I was very happy that most of my family came to the graduation. On that day, one of my cousins graduated too, but the graduation was not on the same time because we were not the same school. At 7 am, all the students (our school) came in to the auditorium for rehearsal, I looked around the auditorium because this was the first time that I get in there and I surprised how it looks like. It was huge which is unbelievable because when I look the outside of the building I don't think it can be that huge. I saw a lot of seats in there, of course those seats are for audience but at that time they are for students, and those seats above were for students's family. At about 10 am, our graduation ended... we left because the next school needs the auditorium, then we went out to take some photos with friends and family. This place such as a great place, and it gave me lots of wonderful memories.
