The San Francisco Ferry Building is one of the most iconic feature of the city. Built in 1898 this is one of very few building to survive both the 1906 & 1989 earthquakes. In fact the1989 earthquake lead to a second life for the building after freeway that passed in front of the building collapsed. This spurred on a number of renovation projects to reconnect the Embarcadero to the rest of the city.
