M.H. de Young, owner of the San Francisco Chronicle, commissioned Burnham and Root to design a signature tower to convey the power of his newspaper. Not to be outdone, de Young 's rival, industrialist Claus Spreckels, purchased the San Francisco Call in 1895 and commissioned a tower of his own that would dwarf the Chronicle Building. The 315 - foot ( 96 m ) Call Building was completed in 1898 and stood across Market Street from the Chronicle Building. The Call Building ( later named the Spreckels Building, and Central Tower today ) would remain the city 's tallest for nearly a quarter century. Both steel - framed structures survived the 1906 earthquake, demonstrating that tall buildings could be safely constructed in earthquake country. Other early twentieth - century skyscrapers above 200 feet ( 61 m ) include the Merchants Exchange Building ( 1903 ), Humboldt Bank Building ( 1908 ), Hobart Building ( 1914 ), and Southern Pacific Building ( 1916 ). Another skyscraper boom took hold during the 1920s, when several Neo-Gothic and Art Deco high rises, reaching three to four hundred feet ( 90 to 120 m ) in height, were constructed, including the Standard Oil Building ( 1922 ), Pacific Telephone Building ( 1925 ), Russ Building ( 1927 ), Hunter - Dulin Building ( 1927 ), 450 Sutter Medical Building ( 1929 ), Shell Building ( 1929 ), and McAllister Tower ( 1930 ). The Great Depression and World War II halted any further skyscraper construction until the 1950s when the Equitable Life Building ( 1955 ) and Crown - Zellerbach Building ( 1959 ) were completed. Many of San Francisco 's tallest buildings, particularly its office skyscrapers, were completed in a building boom from the late 1960s until the late 1980s. During the 1960s, at least 40 new skyscrapers were built, and the Hartford Building ( 1965 ), 44 Montgomery ( 1967 ), Bank of America Center ( 1969 ), and Transamerica Pyramid ( 1972 ) each, in turn, took the title of tallest building in California upon completion. At 853 feet ( 260 m ) tall, the Transamerica Pyramid was one of the most controversial, with critics suggesting that it be torn down even before it was completed. This surge of construction was dubbed `` Manhattanization '' by opponents and led to local legislation that set some of the strictest building height limits and regulations in the country. In 1985, San Francisco adopted the Downtown Plan, which slowed development in the Financial District north of Market Street and directed it to the area South of Market around the Transbay Terminal. Over 250 historic buildings were protected from development and developers were required to set aside open space for new projects. To prevent excessive growth and smooth the boom - and - bust building cycle, the Plan included an annual limit of 950,000 square feet ( 88,000 m ) for new office development, although it grandfathered millions of square feet of proposals already in the development pipeline. In response, voters approved Proposition M in November 1986 that reduced the annual limit to 475,000 square feet ( 44,100 m ) until the grandfathered square footage was accounted for, which occurred in 1999. Aerial photo of downtown San Francisco, 2015. The Transamerica Pyramid is visible on the right. The foundation of the Salesforce Tower is visible on the lower left. These limits, combined with the early 1990s recession, led to a significant slowdown of skyscraper construction during the late 1980s and 1990s. To guide new development, the city passed several neighborhood plans, such as the Rincon Hill Plan in 2005 and Transit Center District Plan in 2012, which allow taller skyscrapers in certain specific locations in the South of Market area. Since the early 2000s, the city has been undergoing another building boom, with numerous buildings over 400 feet ( 122 m ) proposed, approved, or under construction ; some, such as the two - towered One Rincon Hill and mixed - use 181 Fremont, have been completed. Multiple skyscrapers have been constructed near the new Transbay Transit Center, including Salesforce Tower, which topped - out in 2017 at a height of 1,070 feet ( 330 m ). This building is the first supertall skyscraper in San Francisco and among the tallest in the United States.
