A perfect juxtaposition of the modern and the classic. I definitely prefer the classic building to the more modern one.

I like the new vs old theme in this pic
That is certainly a big issue in our city.

A fascinating piece of atrchitecture. A major contrast to the older building

I think that particular house is attached to the church. This is an old industrial/commercial neighborhood a block south of Market Street that has been redeveloped completely over the last couple of decades. Indeed, the CJM building itself is a 100-year-old (and mostly abandoned) power station. The original facade still exists, and the modern blue-glass extensions have been added. I think the blending of new and old in the building itself was done very tastefully, and it also is respectful of older neighboring buildings like the church.

I really like the blend of old and new. Although as a rowhome lover it always makes me sad to just see a lone one like in this picture–where did the rest of them go?

Will definitely have to check this out when I make it to SF. Happy WW!
