The city's Japantown context statement dates the Fillmore Auditorium building to 1912 here, and elsewhere says the Majestic Hall — later known as the Fillmore Auditorium — was built in 1910 at the south-west corner of Geary and Fillmore by Emma Gates Butler and her daughters, to a design by the architects James W. and Merritt Reid. It does not reconcile the two dates. Not yet documented: the architect and builder, the early tenants and the date of the last recorded sale. Submit an update
