Built 1937
Frederick H. Meyer, founder of the California College of Arts and Crafts, designed this
Moderne commercial building. The original four-story, concrete and stucco building was completed
in 1937 and a five-story addition at the rear was added in 1944.
The building was originally used by the Coffin-Redington Drug Company for offices, laboratories,
manufacturing, warehousing and shipping. It was converted into 53 "luxurious" lofts in 1997.
One of the many other commercial buildings and residences designed by Mr. Meyer is the
Cadillac Hotel, San Francisco Landmark 176.
