  1. 1907

    Built as a four-storey brick masonry residential hotel with a rusticated second floor and unusual flat arch voussoirs over the top-floor windows. Its storefronts keep their original configuration, and it is strongly representative of the mixed-use residential hotels put up in the Central SoMa area immediately after the 1906 disaster.
