Cliff House San Francisco, 1907
The neo-classical style building, Cliff House, is built above the cliffs north of Ocean Beach in San Francisco. It was constructed by Senator John Buckley and C. C. Butler, who leased it to Captain Junius G. Foster after its opening in 1863. the building’s main attraction has been its restaurants and bars, where patrons could enjoy the Pacific Ocean views. Unfortunately, a fire destroyed the early version in 1894, but it was rebuilt with modifications.
People can be seen enjoying the beach through this marvelous picture of the epic building. Though it might seem that the construction might fall, it is impossible since the structure is deceptively strong.
