I got another e-mail from the Chronicle reporter today, and he told me the murals have definitely been moved to Treasure Island.

I have a feeling it will be at least several years before we can view these again. The remaining fair buildings need seismic work and are not ADA compliant. Also, the murals are worn in spots (from years of people touching them) and require restoration. As us locals already know, San Francisco doesn't have the money for this sort of thing right now.

I'm going to a holiday party in the newly restored Ferry Building next week -- you'll get a full report.
