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.
