Landmark 102
Italian Swiss Colony Warehouse
1265 Battery Street At Greenwich
Built 1903
This wine warehouse was designed by Hemenway & Miller.
The Italian Swiss Colony Winery was founded in 1881 in Asti, California, about eighty miles north of
San Francisco in Sonoma County. The site of the winery is California Landmark 621.
In the early 1980's, the warehouse was incorporated into the new Levi Strauss & Co. World Headquarters complex.
The ground floor is leased by a restaurant, a coffee shop, and other ventures open to the public.
Frederick Griffing's Ship lies buried somewhere under the plaza.
