Coit Tower
I bring every serious visitor here first and make them look at the frescoes before they touch the elevator button for the view.
A 1933 Art Deco tower with WPA-era frescoes by local artists that were suppressed, altered, and finally restored. The murals are the point. The view is secondary.
