Notes
  • Significance: The Williams Building is part of the Aronson Historic District which is comprised of three buildings: The Williams Building at 693 Mission Street, the Aron Building (now known as the Mercantile Building) at 710 Mission Street, and the Grace Building (also known as the Blumenthal Building) at 87 Third Street. The Williams Building is one of two remaining major commercial designs in downtown San Francisco by Clinton Day (1846-1916), a prominent turn-of-the-century Bay Area architect. The building is one of the first and best of the commercial blocks constructed immediately after the 1906 earthquake and fire. The building is notable for its elegant proportions, finely detailed Renaissance/Baroque ornamentation and high quality masonry work. Other buildings of historical/cultural/architectural merit located within the vicinity and in the Yerba Buena Redevelopment Project include the St. Patricks Church and the Jesse Street Substation.
