一位工艺师昨天在徐汇区土山湾博物馆对土山湾牌楼的一部分进行了测量.这座牌楼高5.18米,宽5.2米,曾在之前的三届世界博览会展出,并成为万众瞩目的焦点.目前有关方面正对这座牌楼进行修复工作,为在2010年上海世博会展出做准备.这座柚木牌楼由土山湾孤儿院的数十名儿童在一位外国工程师指导下手工完成,耗时一年,于1912年建成.它参加了1915年的旧金山世博会,1933年的芝加哥世博会和1939年的纽约世博会.在其后的数十年间,其所有权几度易手.1986年,一位瑞典建筑师发起并成立了一个基金会,专门致力于对这座牌楼的修复.去年4月,上海市徐汇区和这个基金会签署了所有权变更协议,使这座牌楼得以回归故乡.
