Description

The building was designed by Reid & Reid, who were also the architects for Hotel del Coronado and Bay Area landmarks, like the Fairmont Hotel, the Call/Spreckles building, amongst other architectural gems.

The fluted Ionic columns were fashioned after the Temple of Minerva in Assisi, Italy. Minerva is the Roman Goddess of wisdom. 

The building was constructed with white Colorado mule marble - upon the entire facade and throughout the interior - the same material quarried for the Lincoln Memorial of Washington, DC.
