THE BUILDING
THE CLAY JONES- A SAN FRANCISCO ICON
“The first New York type skyscraper residential apartments.”
The San Francisco Chronicle on March 1, 1930.
“Built in 1927 at the intersection of Clay and Jones Streets to the plans of society architect Albert Larsen, the Clay Jones was an innovative luxury apartment building perched at the highest point on Nob Hill, echoing contemporaneous design trends in New York and Europe. One of the most romantic locations in the world, Nob Hill has been at the center of San Francisco’s social, political and economic history for well over a hundred years, and a neighborhood that remains elegantly vibrant today.” Northern California home & Design, March 18th, 2019
Perched high atop the very peak of Nob Hill, the Art Deco high-rise was one of the most luxurious and ground-breaking buildings of its time - and to this day remains one of the mostly highly sought-after doorman high-rises in the City because of its grand design, sprawling spaces, and intricate details of a bygone era. The subject of numerous articles over the years, the building retains its timeless appeal into the 21st Century…
THE ARCHITECT
Neighborhood
NOB HILL-Elegant and glamorous, Nob Hill is home to five legendary hotels, Huntington Park and one of San Francisco’s most iconic structures- Grace Cathedral, San Francisco’s sister version of Notre Dame de Paris. Perched on the commanding heights made accessible in the 1870s by the California Street cable car that runs through the heart of the neighborhood, Nob Hill is home to old San Francisco. The descendants of San Francisco’s founding families still frequent their private clubs here, including the University Club, and Pacific Union club, previously owned by James Flood.
The neighborhood remains one of the most affluent and desirable in all
of San Francisco with its historic, yet vibrant character. With its stunning Beaux Arts-style pre-war luxury buildings decorated with wedding-cake facades, the magnificent palace-like Fairmont Hotel, and emblematic Grace Cathedral, Nob Hill is truly San Francisco’s own version of Paris. It has also been the scene of many famous movie and television filmings over the decades from Alfred Hitchcock’s timeless Vertigo in the 1950’s to 2019’s Matrix 4 with Keanu Reeves which was recently filmed there, as well as the long-running TV series “Hotel” which was set at the Fairmont Hotel- and countless others.
The heart of Nob Hill is Huntington Park and its incomparable 10-foot tall Fountain of Tortoises. Shady benches around the classic urban square provide a welcome rest for those who hike up the hill- and a children’s playground is a hidden gem. In addition to its acclaimed world-class restaurants, charming neighborhood eateries dot the neighborhood. The Masonic Auditorium, a classic example of Mid-Century architecture, is also used as a venue for concerts and events. During the Holiday Season the Laurel Court Restaurant at the Fairmont Hotel features the largest gingerbread house in the world and is a huge attraction for locals and visitors alike- both children and adults!
Nob Hill is conveniently located in the heart of the City, in the midst of
world-renowned hotels, hight-end boutiques, and theaters, as well as
Chinatown, North Beach, and Union Square. The Theater District, Financial District and SOMA’s booming technology center are perfect for enjoying a sophisticated, yet comfortable urban lifestyle.
