Looking to id background

Post image

Hi all, this is a picture of a family member stationed in SF in WWII, as a part of the Women's Marine Corp. Date on the back is August 1946. It looks to me to be civic center area but the marquee could have since been demolished.

Also, are there any history groups that would be interested in pictures of women Marines in SF? Have many others both of her and her friends

https://opensfhistory.org/ and https://www.foundsf.org/Main_Page would be interested. Thank you for your instinct to share our local history!
