Car Rental at 'San Francisco - 4250 Geary Blvd'

Painted Ladies – this is the name of the magnificent architectural ensemble of six buildings located in the Alamo Square region. This is another unforgettable symbol of the city which can be seen not only on postcards but also in movies. The houses are built in the beautiful style of the time of the British Queen Anne. There are similar houses in some other American cities; however, it was from these houses that the history of naming houses of this type begins, or to be precise, with Elizabeth Pomada and Michael Larsen, who wrote the book “The Painted Ladies – San Francisco’s Resplendent Victorians”. Another impressive building of this type is the Queen Anne Hotel.

Built in 1907, the Sentinel Building (or the Columbus Tower, as it is often called), is another stunning building in the city that cannot be ignored. There was a time when the legendary nightclub Hungry I was located in one of these buildings. This is a place where stand-up was born in 1953 when the owner Enrico Barducci created a place where people could freely express their opinions. The Flood Building, which was erected in 1904, is worth mentioning. It is also outstanding for the fact that it was one of the few structures that were not damaged during the 1906 earthquake. Another building that will certainly impress the visitors of San Francisco is the construction Ghirardelli Building.
