Anton Refregier won a federal competition in 1941 to paint the lobby of the Rincon Annex post office and was paid $26,000 for 27 panels on the history of California and San Francisco. The Second World War interrupted the work; he resumed in 1946 and finished in 1948. In 1953 a congressional hearing considered removing the murals as inconsistent with American ideals and principles. They stayed.

The Rincon Annex was listed on the National Register in 1979 and made a San Francisco landmark in 1980. Doug Hollis's Rain Column, installed with the 1988 redevelopment, drops water 85 feet from a ring beneath the atrium skylight.
