you have mixed up your world's fairs. The map is genuinely a map of the GGIE, but the satellite map you show is the location of the PPIE, held in the Marina district in 1915. The Palace of Fine Arts is a remnant of the PPIE of 1915, not the GGIE of 1939.

thanks for setting me straight Anne, I changed the description and the location.
