There is a fundraiser drive to build a house of Panama in the international cottage area of Balboa park. Balboa park was named to showcase the Panama-California Exposition and reaches its 100 year anniversary in 2015.
http://www.houseofpanama.org/p/cottage.html
Balboa park was named after Balboa, a Spanish explorer who was the first European explorer to see the Pacific coast and he did it by crossing through Panama.
At the time of this posting the drive has raised $34,809.49 Goal $160,000.00
Donations of 1,000 or more will give you a plaque on the donors wall :) I bet if someone were to donate enough they'd have something in or around it named after them like how a lot of monuments like schools and libraries are.
Panama is a beautiful country and San Diego and Panama have a long-standing relationship as San Diego benefited hugely from the Panama canal. Another thing they have in common is their high degree of diversity in both wildlife and in human culture and ethnicity. San Diego county is the most bio-diverse county in the 48 contiguous-state mainland of the USA and is one of the most ethnically diverse populations in the U.S.
Panama on the other hand ranks #2 in wildlife biodiversity globally. It has the most variety of birds on the Earth. It also has a diverse population of ethnic groups from a global global wave of immigrants who came to work on building the canal.

Here are images posted less than a year ago on /r/sandiego that show the exposition in 1915

TIL: During his 1976 campaign for US Senator from California, Samuel Hayakawa said of the proposed transfer of the Panama Canal from USA to Panama: "We should keep the Panama Canal. After all, we stole it fair and square." (A few years later, as a senator, he helped win approval for the return.)

Nice attempt at a Pan Pacific commemorative? Or not? I cant afford the real deal but this is a place holder until the wheel of fortune turns my way.
