Landmark 204
Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe
(Our Lady of Guadalupe Church)
906 Broadway Between Mason and Taylor
Russian Hill
Built 1912
This church, designed by Shea and Lofquist, was originally constructed in 1906
and rebuilt in 1912. It is probably the first San Francisco church built of reinforced
concrete.
The church is on the Powell-Mason cable car line. The corner of Mason and Broadway,
at the foot of Russian Hill, is a good spot to jump off the cable car to explore the hill
if you are hardy enough to climb straight up Broadway for two blocks.
