Ferry Building
I use the Ferry Building as my compass. Everything in San Francisco orients to it. The 2003 restoration by SMWM kept the nave intact and made the right call returning the ground floor
A.Page Brown's 1898 transit hall. The clock tower is the city's true orientation point. The interior nave is one of the great barrel-vaulted market spaces on the West Coast.
