Y\5$ In History by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. San Francisco, California May, 2016 Copyright by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. 2016 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read The Gargoyles of San Francisco: Medievalist Architecture in Northern California 1900-1940 by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr., and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in History at San Francisco State University. <2 . d. rbel Rodriguez, lessor of History Philip Dreyfus Professor of History THE GARGOYLES OF SAN FRANCISCO: MEDIEVALIST ARCHITECTURE IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA 1900-1940 James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. San Francisco, California 2016 After the fire and earthquake of 1906, the reconstruction of San Francisco initiated a profusion of neo-Gothic churches, public buildings and residential architecture. This thesis examines the development from the novel perspective of medievalism—the study of the Middle Ages as an imaginative construct in western society after their actual demise. It offers a selection of the best known neo-Gothic artifacts in the city, describes the technological innovations which distinguish them from the medievalist architecture of the nineteenth century, and shows the motivation for their creation. The significance of the California Arts and Crafts movement is explained, and profiles are offered of the two leading medievalist architects of the period, Bernard Maybeck and Julia Morgan.

  • NCCSAH Goes to the Southland: New & Historic Architecture Downtown
    UTILITAS ! FIRMITAS ! VENUSTAS Northern California Chapter Society of Architectural Historians Volume 21, Number 1 The Newsletter Spring 2018 NCCSAH Goes to the Southland: New & Historic Architecture Downtown Los Angeles “Yes, Virginia, there is a downtown Los Angeles. .” David Gebhard and Robert Winter, Los Angeles: An Architectural Guide (1994) The NCCSAH board has planned a very excit- ing and unique tour for spring, 2018. The pro- gram, set for May 26-27, will sample both re- cent architecture and historic buildings in Downtown Los Angeles, all of national signifi- cance. Because all the sites are within walking distance—five or six blocks, mostly flat—the tour will not involve carpooling or a bus. The Tour Itinerary Saturday May 26 – The Cultural District: Significant Recent Architecture Disney Hall, Los Angeles. Photo: Ward Hill The “Cultural District” along Grand Avenue includes many of the most significant recent works of architecture in the United States (if not the world). Saturday will include guided tours of Walt Disney Hall, The Broad (mu- seum of contemporary art) and the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. Disney Hall, completed 2003, is widely regarded as one of the greatest modern concert halls in the world, both acoustically and architecturally. It is visually dazzling. Philip Johnson anointed its architect, Frank Gehry, as “the greatest architect we have today”. The interior is not available for touring during the performance sea- son. However, we can attend a 2 PM concert of the LA Philharmonic conducted by their charismatic music di- rector Gustavo Dudamel, in a program of works by Robert Schumann.

  • The Route for the San Francisco Popos Hike (Privately Owned Public Open Spaces) February15, 2018 Dave Weinstein Copyright 2018 El Cerrito Trail Trekkers
    The Route for the San Francisco Popos hike (Privately Owned Public Open Spaces) February15, 2018 Dave Weinstein Copyright 2018 El Cerrito Trail Trekkers. No reproduction without express permission Intro: Mandated by 1985 the city’s downtown plan for new office developments in downtown, these are private spaces are required to be open to the public. Many are open only during business hours but others are public plazas open all the time. Some were created earlier, by developers seeking density bonuses in exchange, or the like. Problem is, people don’t know about many of these open spaces. (Sort of like the trails in El Cerrito.) In 2013 Chronicle urban writer John King wrote a series critiquing the way come owners made their spaces known, and how poorly the city enforced the rules. Since then thanks to John and increased public interest, things have improved. This tour is an update of a tour Trekkers gave in 2013. We will tour not just POPOS spaces but some other plazas and lobbies that are also open to the public, but without the POPOS mandate. We will note how many of these spaces contain excellent art, making downtown very much an open air and lobby museum that itself is too little known. Note: As performed on February 15, we did not get to all of these sites due to time constraints. We got to most, though! Crown Zellerbach 1 One. Meet at 1 Bush Street, Crown-Zellerbach Building. 1959, Hertzka and Knowles, SOM. (Hertzka, Wayne, Knowles, William Howard. 16 and 24th street BART stations, 100 Pine St., at least portions of Lawrence Berkeley Lab) First glass walled tower in city.

BART is working in cooperation with the City and County of San Francisco to install canopy covers over the majority of the entrances/exits at the four downtown San Francisco BART/Muni stations (Embarcadero, Montgomery Street, Powell Street, and Civic Center/UN Plaza), as well as replace/refurbish existing street-level escalators. On April 30, 2018, BART published a Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) which analyzed potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed project. The Draft IS/MND was available for a 30-day public review period from April 30, 2018 to May 30, 2018 pursuant to Section 15073 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The Notice of Availability and Notice of Intent (NOA/NOI) to adopt the IS/MND was posted with the City and County of San Francisco Clerk and the State Clearinghouse, mailed to all residents and businesses within ¼-mile of the project site, emailed to the project’s listserv of relevant stakeholders and interested people, made available on the BART website, and provided for public review at the San Francisco Main Library at Civic Center.
