masons as seen in a two-toned brick work at 16 45 market street and the sheet metal workers at 150 franklin street and 16 95 market street where paneled bay windows and highly ornamental projecting cornices are particularly significant. all of the buildings retain a high level of integrity that define their unique architectural character. the historic preservation commission and the planning commission voted unanimously to approve and recommend to the board of supervisors approval of the district. the hpc found that the proposed designation will protect valuable historic resources while broadening the available preservation incentive for owners of designated property. the planning commission found that the proposal was consistent with the general plan would not require amendments to the general plan, and would not conflict with the sustainable communities and strategies for the bay area. the planning commission added that these buildings represent a model for development for
extensive outreach to the property owners, tenants, commercial tenants, government officials and community stakeholders. a letter and packet of information was mailed to tenants and property owners of the proposed landmarks and the planning department staff visited each of the commercial tenants to discuss the proposed landmark designation. department also met one on one with all but one of the property owners and discussed resident and commercial tenant issues as well as the benefits and responsibilities of property owners. we also produced a self-guided walking tour of the district. department staff then proceeded with the research of the buildings and drafted the designation report. to summarize, immediately after the earthquake and fire of 1906, which incinerated the whole area out to octavia, thousands of temporary buildings were built throughout the burned areas. it took a few years, but eventually permanent buildings made of durable materials such as these were built.
