San Francisco, Summer 2008

After the 1989 earthquake, City Hall had to be seismically retrofitted and the city took the occasion to restore some of the original gilded lustre as well. It still looks pretty good today.

JDM, just wanted you to see how well it survived the Summer of Love, a decade of Disco, and a magnitude 6.9 quake.

(The guy with the back is just gravy, a contemporary addition, not part of the original Beaux Arts triumph!)
