		Architecturally and historically, the little old houses on Telegraph Hill are of particular interest in that they carry a strong flavor of the San Francisco of the 1850's, before the Italianate and Stick Style rows came to dominate residential streets.
		The combination of business and residential use in the downtown area is one that is only now being revived as one of the answers to the problems of urban living and of fulltime use of scarce and expensive "core city" lands (Olmsted and Watkins 1969: 53).
		One of the oldest houses in Pacific Heights is the Captain Leale house, at 2475 Pacific Avenue.

		As one of the finest surviving examples of a group that includes Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, it is well worth a visit and has a wonderful view of the bay from beneath the Golden Gate Bridge (Woodbridge and Woodbridge 1992: 163).
		When preparations were being made in the 1850s for the construction of the massive brick Fort Point, the entire promontory and whatever remained of the old castillo were blasted away (Alexander and Heig 2002: 12).
		The house was bought by the National Society of Colonial Dames in 1951, moved to this lot from across the street, and restored by Warren Perry, the dean of the University of California-Berkeley School of Architecture.

		Its significance is not in its height but in its graceful façade, which substantially increased the glass window area in proportion to its solid wall, foreshadowing today’s curtain-of-glass high-rises.
		So advanced was the Bayard-Condict Building that, six months before it was finished, the Architectural Record proclaimed it as “the nearest approach yet in New York… to solving the problem of the skyscraper.” The Bayard-Condict Building is both an official city landmark and a designated National Historic Landmark.

		At seventeen he wrote for Blackwood a defence of Turner [1775-1851], which the painter, to whom it was first submitted, did not take the trouble to forward to the magazine.

		While the interior spaces are private and off-limits, the main exhibition gallery at the rear is open to the public on most days.
