Goal

Our historic Burlingame Cupola needs to shine again! Please donate to support this $6,000 refurbishment of Buringame's history.

In 1914 prominent architect Charles Peter Weeks designed a City Hall building worthy of Burlingame's pride and ambitions. The handsome red brick structure was located on Park Road, crowned with the dome-shaped white cupola. The late 1960s community effort to try to save the old city hall, or at least repurpose it, was led by famed Burlingame architect and City Planning Commissioner Colonel Ernest E. Norberg. Although unsuccessful in saving the building, when new City Hall was built in 1970 the community saved the cupola which marks the old building's original location where activists saved the ornament in the wake of parking lot construction.

The "Refurbish the Burlingame Cupola" is a joint project of the Burlingame Parks Forever Foundation and the Burlingame Historical Society.

The Burlingame Parks Forever Foundation is a 501(c)3 organization.
