San Francisco - Cliff House

 
The first Cliff House was a modest structure built in 1863 by Masters Butler and Buckley. It was destroyed by fire in 1894. Rebuilt in 1896, it survived the 1906 earthquake but was destroyed by fire the next year. The third Cliff House was built in 1909, a Neo-Classic design, that still stands today. The existing Cliff House is smaller and less impressive than its predecessor.

The Cliff House is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.
