Built on the ruins of the first town hall destroyed by an earthquake in 1906, the current town hall has something to impress.
Covering an area of 46,000 m2 and spread over two blocks, the building is known for its dome imitating that of the Val-de-Grâce in Paris, while the interior structure of the dome follows the codes of the Hôtel des Invalides in the French capital.
Its dome, the fifth largest in the world, even overlooks that of the U.S. Capitol.
7,035 tons of steel were needed to manufacture the building and the marble used for the various decorations was imported from Alabama, Colorado, Vermont and Italy.
The remains of U.S. President William G. Harding were deposited at San Francisco City Hall after his death in 1923, Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe were married there in 1954 and Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk were murdered within these walls in 1978.
