Appraiser's Building

Location: Sansome (east side) between Washington/Jackson.

The Appraiser's Building at Sansome/Washington was built in 1877. The first three images below are Muybridge photos taken during construction (1/25/1877, 2/xx/1877, 9/19/1877). The building survived the 1906 earthquake, and Appraiser John Dare led a small group of men on the roof using water from the rooftop water tank to successfully fight the ensuing fire.
